Hungary’s foreign minister chides “unbalanced, one-sided” BBC anchor for pro-EU, pro-migration rant
07/05/2018
Hungarian foreign minister Péter Szijjártó had to chide BBC anchor Emily Maitlis for "unbalanced, one-sided" journalism after she lost her temper and launched into a rant about the EU standing for "tolerance, diversity, and human rights". Speaking to Szijjártó on the publicly-funded broadcaster's flagship BBC Newsnight programme, Maitlis took umbrage with the Hungarian statesman's claim that "the current migration policy of the European Union can be very easily translated as an invitation" to illegal migrants.
