To the Editor:

Re “Soros Foundations to Leave Hungary as Orban Grows More Belligerent” (news article, May 16):

It is sad and disappointing that the Open Society Foundations have to leave Hungary. What is worse is the anger toward and hatred of immigrants.

People might want to ask themselves how America became one of the wealthiest countries and one of the strongest in history. By being a multiethnic society built by immigrants in a relatively fair and open democracy. That’s how.

And now ask yourselves where your ancestors came from.
