In a speech in August 2018, Macron again called for a European superstate, and stated that Europe should become "the model for a humanist refoundation of globalisation." He vowed to defeat nationalistic and patriotic forces and compared nationalists to "those who advocate hate speech," in addition to calling [[Viktor Orbán]]'s pro-Christianity speeches "anti-European."<ref>Multiple references:
