Foreign ministers of the Visegrad Group have agreed to provide immediate assistance to Poland to combat the “pressure of migration”, Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó said on Facebook on Monday.

He noted that Hungary had faced similar pressure in 2015, and “we could rely on assistance from the V4, and it is natural that the same now applies to Poland.”
