EU states push forward the fight against smugglers

Member States have reached a common denominator regarding criminal law provisions for migrant smuggling. This decision was made at the last Justice Ministerial Council meeting held under the Hungarian Presidency, which goes against the Stop Soros Act, which has since been declared contrary to EU law and withdrawn.

Közös nevezőre jutottak a tagállamok a migránsok csempészésére vonatkozó büntetőjogi rendelkezésekkel kapcsolatban. A magyar elnökség alatt tartott utolsó igazságügyi miniszteri tanácsülésen született meg ez a döntés, amely egyébként szembemegy az azóta uniós joggal ellentétesnek minősített és visszavont Stop Soros törvénnyel.
