Local Muslims wary of Hungary's anti-migrant referendum

Muslims in Hungary say they are wary of the government's anti-migrant referendum this weekend, which polls suggest has boosted xenophobic feelings.

 

The government, contending that there is a direct link between migrants and terrorism, is seeking a popular mandate in Sunday's vote for its opposition to accepting any mandatory European Union quotas for resettling asylum seekers.

 

"I'm starting to feel that my own homeland is repudiating me," says Timea Nagy, a Hungarian Muslim.
