Poland and Hungary blocked the European Union (EU) from issuing symbolic statements on immigration, but other leaders at the Spanish summit said they would continue to reform the EU's rules on handling informal immigration anyway.

So far this year, about 250,000 people have arrived in EU countries from pipelines outside the regular border routes. The EU has a population of 450 million people.

Italy, Spain and Germany expressed concerned about an increase in informal immigration, Reuters reported. With German local elections due on Monday, a general election in Poland, and EuropeanParliament (EuropeanParliament) elections due in June next year, immigration has become a politically sensitive issue.

Polish Prime Minister (Mateusz Morawiecki) has accused Germany of working together with Polish opposition leaders to push for new EU laws to punish countries that refuse to accept migrants from the Middle East and Africa.

Anti-immigrant Prime Minister Victor Orban (Victor Orban) also accused the European Union of forcing a new immigration deal.

The European Political Community (European Political Community) summit in Granada (Granada), Spain, gave Moravicz and his ally Oban the stage to promote a populist stance to the domestic audience, AFP reported.

Moravicz claims that under his "opposition", the joint statement "means that the process will not continue... Poland has a chance to block it"."Illegal immigrants... disease has plagued Europe for years.」

Earlier, Oban claimed that Hungary was "legally violated" by pushing the EU law to reform immigration policy based on the support of most countries.

Poland and Hungary now demand a veto to share the responsibility of admitting asylum seekers in all EU member states.

Despite an unusual rise in entry, 22 of the 27 EU members agreed this week on how to deal with informal immigration, a step toward reforming the EU's less efficient asylum and immigration rules.

The European Parliament must begin further negotiations on the agreement, and the chairman of the Executive Committee of the European Union, Ursula Von der Leyen), said today she is confident that a final agreement can be reached.

"We can talk about this, but we are making progress," she said. Immigration has always there, always. The problem is how we as part of the European team have to manage... we cannot accept what human traffickers do, we cannot let them decide who has the pipeline into the EU.」
