Migrants who have arrived in Hungary will have to stay in makeshift camps across the nation unless they decide to return home or their application is successful and they can move on, a spokesman for Hungarian prime minister Victor Orban announced last night.

Mr Kovacs, a spokesman for Mr Orban said: Liberty comes only after security.

The new policy expected to be rolled out by Hungary could put the sovereign state in direct conflict with the EUs own migrant policy, which urges nations states to accept a certain amount of refugees.

Mr Kovacs himself blasted the Brussels bloc and claimed it was lagging behind reality when it came to tackling the migrant crisis.

He added: Everybody who comes to the EU as a migrant is basically coming illegally.

We are going to introduce a new measure and that is no migrants can move freely up until there is a final legal decision, whether they are entitled for political asylum or refugee status.

They will not be allowed to move freely within the country.

Mr Kovacs announced that migrants will be given food, shelter and education, which is in line with international rules, but that the scheme would stop the systematic abuse of the Schengen zone which allows free movement of people between EU member states, minus Britain.

Mr Kovacs said: Within Schengen it is impossible to stop this, you have to reinforce the borders and establish the rules.

If you dont put physical barriers on the borders, human traffickers are going to carry on their business.

The Hungarian leader was among one of the first European leaders to publicly support Donald Trump during the Presidential campaign.

When quizzed if the election of President Trump had made such policies easier to implement, Mr Kovacs said: We believe that a change of perspective in the United States helped others to respect the Hungarian position.
