5:27Now PlayingThe European Union has begun the process of clawing back hundreds of millions of euros in funds meant to go to Hungary. The move comes now that Hungary has missed a deadline to pay a huge fine for breaking the EU’s asylum rules.
Now the EU plans to deduct the fine from the funds earmarked for Hungary in the bloc's budget. The initial fine of 200 million euros is growing by one million euros every day Hungary has not paid up.
But Prime Minister Viktor Orban has insisted he will not back down from his position on refusing to accept asylum seekers.
For more on this, we talk to DW Correspondent Jack Parrock, who is joining us from Brussels.
