Hungary has offered asylum to Christian convert Aideen Strandsson because the Swedish government plans to deport her to Iran where she could face prison or even the death penalty for apostasy.

Even worse, Strandsson states that she was told by Swedish authorities that “it’s not our problem if you decided to become a Christian.”

It is ironic that Sweden has a reputation as “the world’s humanitarian conscience and a safe haven for refugees” in the face of its rejection and mockery of Strandsson.

Swedish MEP Malin Bjork once issued an indictment against Hungary due to its tight immigration policy and rejection of EU refugee quotas. Bjork stated, demonstrating the pervasive, divisive and propagandist narrative: “When it comes to the political course, Hungary is playing a very dangerous and racist game and right-wing nationalist game and I don’t think we should adapt to it.” But now that Hungary has come out in support of Aideen Strandsson, it has used the opportunity to showcase its sensible immigration policy in the face of false accusations of racism:

Deputy Prime Minister Zsolt Semjén released a statement on Hungary’s official government website saying: “Right from the beginning, we have differentiated between economic migrants and genuine asylum-seekers. Taking in persecuted Christians is our moral and constitutional duty all at once.

Christians, who are in most need — as they are victims of war and also victims of religious persecution — have been neglected by Western nations in their bizarre, ongoing eagerness to prioritize Muslim refugees, despite the woes they have already experienced as an outcome of their suicidal immigration policies. European nations have been afflicted with escalating crime and chaos, an Islamic State infiltration of the refugee stream, and a pervasive problem with integration.

Hungarian Deputy Minister Semjén also noted that “Christians would have a much easier time integrating into Hungarian society than Muslim migrants.”
