Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban on Sunday ratcheted up his fierce anti-immigration rhetoric as he urged voters to reelect him in April for a third term, branding the opposition as out of touch and “hopeless”.
“Dark clouds are gathering over Europe because of immigration,” Orban told an audience of supporters during an annual state-of-the-nation speech in Budapest.
“Nations will cease to exist, the West will fall, while Europe won’t even realise that it has been invaded,” he said, claiming that large European cities could soon have Muslim majority populations.
“The opposition doesn’t feel the voice of the times,” he said.
