Orbán in Warsaw: The EU should set a joint European army

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, in Warsaw on Friday, announced that the European Union should start setting up a joint European army, claiming that security should be a priority for Europe. "We should list the issue of security as a priority, and we should start setting up a common European army," Orbán said during a news conference following a meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Visegrad Group heads. Apart from that, Viktor Orbán said that Hungary will build a "new, massive fence on its southern borders to defend against a possible surge in the number of migrants." Last year, Hungary built fences protected with razor wire on its southern borders with Serbia and Croatia, when nearly 400,000 people passed through the country on their journey west.
