Ex-German spy chief attacks EU on Hungarian TV
By EUobserver
Former German domestic intelligence chief Hans-Georg Maassen has attacked German and EU asylum policy, speaking on a Hungarian government TV station. The European "lock is still open, even if fewer [migrants] come in," he told the M1 broadcaster, which is associated with hard-right and eurosceptic content, on Wednesday. Maassen was fired from his spy job last year over his public sympathies for far-right protesters and political parties in Germany.
