On 2nd April 2013, 92 refugees have to leave the Refugee Reception Centre in Bicske with the majority of them not knowing where to go, nor why was the Hungarian state incapable of providing them with respectable housing. Since 2012 November, there have been demonstrations and private meetings in which the refugees have been trying to draw the authorities' attention to the fact that Hungary gives no chances for integration. Instead, the system pushes refugees to the streets, to the sphere of urban poverty. Those who wish to avoid this experience, can only choose to go to the West, and pass on the responsibility of Hungary on the shoulders of the European Union.
For those refugees who are single, the state has offered a place in a temporary homeless shelter. The shelters do not encourage integration to Hungarian society at large, as refugees do not wish to start their life in Hungary as homeless, one of the most oppressed category in Hungary today. It was not in vain that the demonstrating refugees raised their voices, but so far the state has not offered any durable solution to this enduring state of crisis.
Tuesday, 2nd April 2013, may become the black day of Hungarian refugee affairs. In order to avoid that, these 92 people granted international protection by the Hungarian society all the possible public attention and support in what might turn out one of the most difficult days in their lives.
