Security and stability in the region are integral part of the security of the whole European Union, a joint statement of the Ministers of Foreign Affairs reads. Hungary’s Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto warned that in case of instability in Southeast Europe, that region may not be able to deal with a new migrant wave.
