The day before, Orbán said that the mixing of Europeans with non-Europeans has created a “mixed-race world” and said that Hungarians do not want to “become a mixed-race people.”
Racial discrimination is contrary to the values of the European Union. On Saturday, July 30, Politico wrote in relation to the statement of the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.
“So, the head of the EC responded to the racist statement of the Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban,” the newspaper wrote.
At the same time, he recalled that all EU member states, including Hungary, subscribe to common global values.
“Racial discrimination is a violation of these values,” von der Leyen said.
He emphasized that the European Union was built on equality, tolerance, fairness and fair play.
“Despite the fact that some people will always allow themselves hostile rhetoric, society as a whole is stronger,” said the head of the European Commission.
Recall that Orban caused a scandal by speaking out against “mixing of races.” He said that European races should not mix with non-European races, which caused a wave of criticism.
