PM Orbán said which “races” Hungarians might and would not mix with

Below you may read Orbán’s full-length line of thought, clearing what the prime minister thinks about which peoples the Hungarians should mix with.

“Hungarians do not want to become a mixed-race”

The Hungarian prime minister talked about the future of the Hungarian nation yesterday in Tusnádfürdő, Central Romania. One of his statements, saying that “we [Hungarians] are not a mixed race, and we do not want to become a mixed race either” caused a huge public outcry in Hungary. Some opposition politicians said it just served the purpose of distracting public attention from the government’s financial restrictions. Anyway, you may read Orbán’s full-length line of thought on the issue below. The prime minister cleared yesterday what he thought about which people the Hungarians should mix with and which not.

Orbán said there was a trick of the international left, claiming that Europe has always been home to mixed-race people. But that statement is an illusion and a deliberate conflation of ideas.

There is a mixed-race world, but we are not part of it

Orbán said there were two worlds. The world of Europeans mixing with non-Europeans is the “mixed-race world”. Meanwhile, in our world, European peoples are intermixing, working and moving with each other. “We, in the Carpathian Basin, for example, aren’t mixed-race people, but simply a mix of the peoples living in their European homeland,” Orbán said. In more fortunate times, these peoples merged into a unique Hungaro-Pannonian “sauce”, creating a new European culture.

“That is why we ever fought. We are ready to mix with each other. But we [Hungarians] do not want to become a mixed-race,” Orbán cleared. That is why Hungarians stopped the Ottoman Empire at the walls of Nándorfehérvár (1456) and Vienna (1683). And that is why the French stopped the Arabic invasion on the battlefield of Poitiers in 732. 

Today the Islamic civilisation is moving toward Europe. However, they acknowledged that the route leading through Hungary is not fit to “send their people” to Europe due to the Nándorfehérvár-traditions. Therefore, they come from the south.

Future generations may have to disregard Schengen

Future generations must be prepared to thwart the expansion of Islamic civilisation towards Europe, not just from the south but from the west as well, he said. At the same time, Hungary must be prepared to take in Christians fleeing the West. That already happened, Orbán added.

And those we do not want to take, we must stop at our Western borders, despite Schengen.

But this will not be the task of his generation, he added. Their aim is to prepare their children to accomplish it when the time comes.
