Hungary was an ally of Nazi Germany, so the Germans could not simply set up camps there. Although the Hungarian dictator, Horthy, was antisemitic he did not favour killing the Jews.

From March 1944 onwards Horthy's position in Hungary was weakened as the Nazis gave growing support to the Hungarian Arrow Cross Party, which was in effect a Nazi party, and in October 1944 Horthy was ousted altogether. The Arrow Cross Party began deporting Jews from Hungary to Auschwitz in March 1944. In August 1944, Horthy (still having some influence) managed to stop the deportations briefly ...

The situation was complicated, to see the least.
