Hungary’s prime minister says “Christianity is Europe’s last hope” and that politicians in Brussels, Berlin and Paris favouring migration have “opened the way to the decline of Christian culture and the advance of Islam”.

Viktor Orban said on Sunday during his 20th annual state of the nation speech that his government will oppose efforts by the United Nations or the European Union to make migration acceptable to the world.
