Hungary's Prime Minister Viktor Orban defended his hardline stance against refugees, the vast majority of whom are Muslim, saying in an interview published Friday that Islam "has never been part of Europe".

He also hit out at France and Germany for refusing to countenance "any doubts" over a multicultural society.
"We in Hungary decide what we want or don't want. We don't want that," he said.
Almost 600,000 people have arrived in Europe so far this year, with many of them heading for Germany and Sweden.
Orban asserted that most asylum seekers arriving in Europe are actually economic migrants.
"Not everyone is entitled to a life in Germany or a life in Hungary. That's only for those who have worked for it," he said.
