Hungary rejects French criticism of the fence it is building to defend its border from Syrian migrants attempting to enter the European Union, a Foreign Ministry state secretary declared on Monday.
French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius accused Hungary on Sunday of a "scandalous" policy toward refugees which deviates from EU values.
State secretary Levente Magyar told Hungary's national news agency MTI that the government rejected all the "mean adjectives and accusations" used by Fabius on Sunday.
