The Tucker Carlson Show
Hungary Prime Minister Viktor Orban on USAID, Trump, Immigration, NATO, and the Russia/Ukraine War

So I'm a fascist, you know, I'm sitting here like... I'm a bad guy. I'm a fascist. I'm middle-aged, feudalistic, Christian radicals. Who is arguing for peace, which is the worst thing. That's absurd, may I say.

You mean migration? Migration. Unrestricted migration. So we are living in, okay, under liberal dictatorship intellectually, but politically still we are living in democracies. So public opinion counts. And I think now we have a problem of democracy because of the migration. It's not just a problem of migration, problem of democracy.

Because if you have an elite which is not ready to accept the obvious public will of your voters, instead of accepting that forcing against the population their own crazy ideas, it raised the problem of democracy. So that's where we are, because now there's a quite strong shift in the mindset of the Western societies. Previously, at the beginning of the mass migration period, I'm speaking about

2015, 2016, there were half and half of the societies, even probably more than half was in favor of doing something good in favor of those who were considered as refugees. Then slowly but surely turned to be that they are not refugees, basically. They're changing their place. There are some of them refugees, but basically the majority of them would like to get a better life, simply.

And they are organized by smugglers. It's an international black business, you know, so it's an awful business. And now the terrorism somehow related to this whole changes just come up to the surface. It's never happened earlier. Terrorism was not part of the Western life anyway. If I remember back, the last one was in the 70s, some crazy communist Marxist group of Germany.

But after that, you know, terrorism is not part of the Western life. Violence of public life does not belong to us. But now terrorism is up. Public order is dispersing.

And the public opinion said, 70% said, yes, you should change it. And they voted against it. So it's a problem of democracy. It's not just a problem of migration. It's not a problem of leadership. The whole structure and the system is under pressure at this moment.
