BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) - Hungary's prime minister has painted an apocalyptic view of Western Europe, saying it is under a migrant invasion which will soon make a minority of native Europeans.

Prime Minister Viktor Orban, speaking Thursday at a massive rally three weeks ahead of Hungary's parliamentary election, said Western Europe has surrendered with "its hands up" to the mass migration of people from Africa and the Middle East.

He said: "The youth of Western Europe will still live to see when they become a minority in their own country and lose the only place in the world to call home."

Orban has made his policies to block immigration the near-exclusive focus of his campaign for a third consecutive term.

Several opposition groups are holding smaller rallies and remembrances across the Hungarian capital, Budapest.
