Mixed society in Hungary and in Europe: that is what PM Orbán talked about again in a conference in Brussels. Hungarian law sees illegal border crossing as “a crime rather than human right”, and Hungary stops illegal migrants from crossing the borders, Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said at the NatCon event in Brussels on Wednesday.
Orbán against mixed society
Speaking at the National Conservatism Conference with Yoram Hazony, the head of the Herzl Institute, Orbán said migrants awaiting the assessment of their asylum request should wait outside of the borders of the European Union. Unless Europe achieves that, the issue of migration cannot be solved, he said.
Orbán said Hungary did not want a mixed society and wanted to protect its borders and to preserve its culture and traditions.
He said there was no need for a common EU migration policy, but member states should decide on the ways they wanted to “solve the issue of migration”.
The issue of migration hinged on matters of civilisation, Orbán said. Europe is rooted in Christianity, and those currently wanting to settle here were from other cultures, mainly with a Muslim background, he said.
Migration also had a historic perspective, Orbán said. People must ask themselves what Hungary would look like in future, and whether it would have a Christian, Muslim or other background, he said.
The prime minister said everyone should decide for themselves on the “environment and culture” they wanted to create in their country, and refrain from forcing their will on others.
Liberals want mixed society
Orbán said Hungary was of the opinion that the mixed society envisioned by liberals would “not end well”.
Countries, he said, could not be prescribed methods to combat aging societies. Hungary, he added, did not see “forcing migration” as a solution to that problem, but was working to improve the situation through a robust family support system.
Meanwhile, Orbán said conservative governments “seen as misbehaving by Brussels” were being “blackmailed”. Rather than “a guardian of the European treaties”, the European Commission had become a political player, he said.
Orbán insisted that the EU’s leadership was “forcing migration” because liberals wanted to collect more votes. The true reason was not economic or political, but an aim to obtain strength through votes, he said.
Hungary “is an island” of difference in Europe’s “progressive liberal ocean”, Orbán said, adding that Hungary was a place where conservatives were free to speak and make political plans for the future.
He said freedom fighters must once again be active and take action in Europe. Conservative civil societies must join conservatives ready to fight for freedom, he said. “Hungary is the right place for this,” he added.
Ukraine: protectorate of the West
Commenting on the geopolitical situation, Orbán said Hungary did not want to have a common border with Russia once again, as it had during Soviet times. Hungary recognises Ukraine’s rights and independence, he said, adding that the Russian attack against Ukraine went completely against all international treaties and all commonly respected values. At the same time, it must be acknowledged that Ukraine “is currently a protectorate of the West”, which means that the country would not exist without the continual supply of weapons and financial support, he said. “Ukraine is not an independent country anymore,” he added.
Orbán said the Hungarian government did not want to give up good economic cooperation between Hungary and Russia, adding that the Russia-Ukraine war was not Hungary’s war. The Ukrainians “want to protect their country, which is their decision”, he added.
At the same time, he said the reason for the war was connected with the issue of Ukraine’s prospective membership of NATO, adding that Russia would never allow Ukraine to become a member of the alliance in its current form. He said they would do everything to ensure that a buffer zone remained between NATO and Russia. A ceasefire and peace talks would be better than pursuing the war as it must be accepted that Ukraine “cannot win on the battlefield”, Orbán said. “This is the reality,” he added.
He also said that Hungary condemned all attacks against Israel and recognised the country’s right to self-defence. The broadening of the Middle East conflict must be prevented because this would destabilise Europe and threaten peace and security, Orbán said.

Kir is the product of Belgium. No Muslim believes in free speech, neither does Marxist EU. Kir is against conservatives because conservatives would put the interest of their citizens first rather than uneducated criminal illegal aliens. Kir believes and believed in power lies in the majority and Kir thought that there were enough Muslim to support his oppressive medieval ideas. Kir does not belong in a civilized EU.
“Hungary is judeo-christian!” “Hungary condemns all attacks against Israel!” ” Long live Israel!”

Mixed societies always devolve into a fight between factions trying to impose their values over others.
Peaceful societies have majority accepted codes of behavior.
‘Speaking at the National Conservatism Conference with Yoram Hazony, the head of the Herzl Institute’
The latter, Jewish, have short memories or no knowledge of the history of religion, migration, pogroms, dog whistling etc. in the broader region pre & during WWII?
I do like @freedomofspeech´s “Peaceful societies have majority accepted codes of behavior”. Clubs have rules, to which all Members adhere! Or should. Take the European Union for example. Oh, wait! Hungary is the Sole Bastion, the stand out, the one regularly wielding veto power over the other twenty six (26) Members. Not able to convince even one single other Member of our Politicians standpoint.
Then there is the matter of continuing to adhere to what we signed up to (relinquishing sovereignty), when we joined the EU:

News for Mr. Orban: Carpet bombing children, starvation of civilian population and genocide are not “defending yourself”.
Hypocrite!!!!!!
Anonymous, there you go standing up for trained, rock throwing future terrorist. Schools have brainwashed children of all ages. People of Gaza supported and support terrorists hamas (remember October 7/2023, beheading children, throwing children in hot ovens, first raping and then killing women and taking hostages) that makes the whole population legitimate targets.
Israel, being a kind and civilized society, warns the population of proposed attacks. This gives the people a chance to leave. Statistics show that the male members of society leave; leaving behind children and women. According to the statistics given by hamas controlled agency the death rate among women and children is higher than males. The males killed actually include hamas fighters; it seems that cowardly men of Gaza can hide.
Hamas broke the peace treaty for the 1000th time. Prior to October 7, Israel supplied Gaza with electricity, clean water and jobs. This must stop in the future. If the government elected by the people of Gaza does not supply their needs either they can elect a different government of starve.
Now, Israel is allowing UN trucks through its territory with food and medical supplies. Needless to say, hamas confiscates it all. This must stop. Israel must close its border to the terrorists. If the UN, US want to feed the terrorists population, let them use roads in Egypt of Jordan.
The people of Israel deserve everyone’s support, even yours Anonymous. Israel is not the guilty party but if you support hamas, you are.
