Orban: West 'unwilling to sustain itself'

"While certain civilisations are able to reproduce, the West is simply unwilling to sustain itself," Prime Minister Viktor Orban said in his address at the 4th Demographic Summit in Budapest on Thursday. "Some do not see this as a problem," while others would use migration as a solution, he said. That would be tantamount to a "global plan to resettling a new working class", and such a plan would ignore the cultural aspect of migration, a key factor in Europe, he said. "Migration is a matter of identity here. A European country is only functional if its members have largely the same views on the main questions. Nations lacking that common ground are bound to disintegrate in Europe," he said.
