Hungary to gradually halt gas shipments from Hungary to Ukraine, Orbán announces 😔

Cikk tartalma röviden

The Druzhba oil pipeline has been inactive for thirty days due to Ukraine allegedly blocking it. Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán claims measures against Ukrainian 'blackmail' have been successful but calls for further action to ensure energy stability. Hungary plans to halt gas shipments to Ukraine until oil is supplied. A Russian attack on January 27 damaged the pipeline, leading to accusations from Hungary against Ukraine for withholding oil. Ukrainian President Zelensky has expressed reluctance to restore the pipeline but accepted EU support for its restoration. Orbán, supported by Slovak PM Robert Fico, is blocking a €90 billion EU loan to Ukraine until shipments resume, facing condemnation from other EU leaders.
