Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban condemned on Sunday the European Union's failure to get to grips with its migrant crisis and vowed to resist pressure to take in more migrants, saying they would bring crime, terrorism and other problems, according to Reuters. In his annual state of the nation, address Orban struck a particularly harsh tone towards the refugees and Brussels over its attempts to impose migrant quotas on member states. "We cannot let it force upon us the sour fruits of their misguided immigration policy. We want to import no crime, terrorism, homophobia or anti-Semitism to Hungary," he said, adding the quota system could cause the EU's disintegration. Orban, who has been widely criticised for building a razor-wire fence along Hungary's southern border to keep migrants out, referred to growing social tensions in Europe, including attacks on refugee centres and alleged mass sexual harassment by migrants in Cologne and other German cities at New Year. "The migration wave can be stopped," he said. "Europe is a community of half a billion people, more than Russia and the United States combined. Europe has the technology, the strategic and economic might to defend itself," he said. Orban said he did not blame the migrants for only doing "what they think is best for them" by coming to Europe but European leaders for failing to devise coherent policies to stem and reverse the tide.
