Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, during a meeting with his Austrian counterpart Carl Nehammer in Vienna on Thursday, explained his words on "race mixing. Telex reports that.

"We are in full agreement on the issue of anti-Semitism and racism. What the Austrian chancellor thinks about it, I think about it," Orban said at a joint press conference.

Explaining his words that Hungarians should not become a "mixed race," he said he was simply against migration.

"I don't want Hungary to become an immigration country, and I don't want migration to increase in Hungary. I have always held this view and will continue to hold it, it has no biological basis. It's not a racial issue for us. It is a cultural issue. Simply put, our civilization needs to be preserved as it is now," Orban said.

"It so happens that sometimes I express myself ambiguously. It's a civilizational stance. We are proud of what Hungary has achieved in the fight against racism. It's not about racism, it's about cultural differences," he added.

Recall that on Saturday, as part of the "Tuszwanos Summer University" in the resort town of Beile Tusznad, Viktor Orban spoke out against "mixing" European and non-European races in a speech that immediately sparked outrage from opposition parties and European politicians.
