Gergely Gulyás slammed the EU's top court for ordering Budapest to pay €200 million for flouting asylum rules.
A Hungarian government minister has warned the EU that the country will send migrants to Brussels if the bloc continues to demand that it accept more asylum seekers.
"If Brussels wants migrants, they will get them," Gergely Gulyás, minister for the prime minister's office told a press conference on Thursday. "We will give everyone a one-way ticket if the EU makes it impossible to stop migration at the external border."
The minister made the incendiary remarks in reference to a heavy €200 million fine that the European Court of Justice (ECJ) handed down to Hungary in June for repeatedly ignoring EU asylum rules.
At the time, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán described the court's decision as "outrageous and unacceptable".
