Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights, Dunja Mijatović, considers it necessary to resolve issues relating to ensuring the protection of refugees, the civil society environment, justice and gender equality in Hungary, Ukrinform reports.

According to the Commissioner, local authorities use anti-migrant rhetoric, reinforcing xenophobic sentiments, The Guardian informs. In addition, the report states that “the violation of human rights in Hungary has a negative impact on the rule of law system” and should be immediately resolved.

It is also reported that the work of non-governmental organizations is stigmatized and criminalized. In addition, it is noted that the country’s authorities have deviated from the principles of gender equality by adopting a new plan of action for the protection of the family, in which women are perceived primarily as woman in labor.

As The Journalist reported, Hungary kept illegal migrants in transit centers for 5 days without food.
