“Hungary’s far-right prime minister, Viktor Orbán, has lashed out against the ‘mixing’ of European and non-European races, in a speech that immediately drew outrage from opposition parties and European politicians,” The Guardian reports.

He added that countries where European and non-Europeans mingle were “no longer nations.”
