Hungary's Orban vows defence of 'Christian' Europe
2019-02-11
[Al Jazeera] Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban launched his European elections campaign on Sunday calling on voters to defend "Christian" nations against immigration, which he said led to the "virus of terrorism".

Delivering a "state of the nation" speech in the capital, Budapest, Orban also announced a seven-point package of tax breaks and subsidies to encourage families to raise more children - a move he called "Hungary's answer" to its falling population instead of increasing immigration.

The benefits include a lifetime personal income-tax exemption for women who give birth and raise at least four children and a subsidy of 2.5 million forints ($8,825) towards the purchase a seven-seat vehicle for families with three or more children.

A low-interest loan of 10 million forints ($35,300) for women under the age of 40 who are marrying for the first time will also be introduced.

Orban, who has made "zero tolerance" for immigration his main theme in the past four years and was elected to a third consecutive term in April, also said May's elections for the European Parliament were a "historic crossroads" for Europe.

He framed the vote as a choice between the "new internationalism" of pro-migration Brussels babus bureaucrats under the sway of "money men" such as liberal US billionaire George Soros
...either Ernst Stavro Blofeld or Auric Goldfinger come true...
and sovereign nation states defending tradition and Christianity.

And he warned against voting for pro-immigration parties.

Those who "decide for immigration and migrants colonists for whatever reason in reality are creating mixed-race nations", he said.

'WE WANT HUNGARIAN BABIES'
Referring several times to Hungary's abandoning of communism in 1989, he said Hungarians were again confronted with "those who would wipe out our traditions and nation states".

He added: "Historic traditions in immigrant countries come to an end ... in such countries Christian-Moslem worlds are created with continually shrinking Christian proportions."

Orban, who has emerged as a self-styled "illiberal" figurehead for nationalist politicians in Europe, added that "immigration brings increased crime, especially crimes against women, and lets in the virus of terrorism".
