Orbán urged the reinforcement of Hungary’s lines of border defence. If we must, we will defend our border along its entire length, from Slovenia to Ukraine, he said. Europe’s future is not endangered mainly by migrants, but by the political, economic and intellectual leaders that are trying to reshape Europe and the people of Europe, he said.

The world citizens of the political and intellectual elite in Brussels and a few European capitals are standing against the majority of people with national sentiments, he added. Orbán said migration could be stopped but the problem is that Brussels lacks the will to protect itself.

It is not too late for Brussels to understand that it is crucial to face reality instead of pursuing dreams, Orbán said.

The reality is that a world of “parallel societies” has been under construction in many European countries for quite some time and these societies have suppressed “our world” because new arrivals “have no wish at all to take over our way of life, since they believe theirs to be more suitable”, Orbán said.
