The Hungarian authorities are handling the migration crisis in the wake of the war in Ukraine “flawlessly”, Michael Spindelegger, head of the International Centre for Migration Policy Development, said in Beregsurány, near the Hungary-Ukraine border, on Wednesday.

ICMPD, based in Vienna, is active in ninety countries, and carries out research on migration and makes recommendations to governments and agencies.
