Menedékkért

Menedékkért is a Hungarian term that translates to "for asylum" or "for refuge." It refers to the process and application for seeking protection from persecution or danger in a foreign country. Individuals who fear returning to their home country due to well-founded fears of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group, or political opinion are eligible to apply for asylum. The process typically involves submitting an application to the relevant authorities of the host country, followed by interviews and assessments to determine the validity of the claim. If granted, asylum provides protection from deportation and often leads to the right to reside and work in the country. The concept of menedékkért is deeply rooted in international humanitarian law, particularly the 1951 Refugee Convention and its 1967 Protocol, which outline the rights and protections afforded to refugees. Each country has its own specific procedures and legal frameworks for handling asylum applications, but the underlying principle remains the protection of those fleeing persecution.
