Orban, speaking to a meeting of Hungarian leaders in Budapest, said he expected intense pressure to accept some part of those refugees, something he said Budapest could not do.
He added that the agreement has already been floated at a recent EU summit in Malta but was abandoned and not included in the EU-Turkey agreements signed at the weekend in Brussels after its proponents could not gather the necessary support for it.
