🚨 The Hungarian government introduced a National Card, allows Russian & Belarusian “guest workers” to enter country without security screenings. This policy follows closure of the controversial Russian-controlled International Investment Bank (IIB) or “spy bank,” has raised significant national security concerns.
Key points:
• The National Card system allows workers from Russia and Belarus, to enter Hungary WITHOUT a cap on numbers and without specific job restrictions.
• The card does not require proof of job demand & allows family reunification.
• projects like the Paks II nuclear plant, need for large numbers of Russian workers for project is questionable
• Security expert Rácz András warns policy opens a loophole similar to the IIB, potentially allowing large numbers of Russians to enter Hungary with NO oversight, posing a significant national security risk.
• Facilitate the movement of Russians within the Schengen zone, bypassing the restrictions faced by typical work permits.
