Hungary’s foreign minister said on Saturday the European Commission’s decision not to mediate in a dispute over a blockage of oil supplies from Russia via Ukraine into his country suggested that Brussels was behind the stoppage.
Hungary and its neighbour Slovakia have been protesting since Ukraine put Russian oil producer Lukoil (LKOH.MM) on a sanctions list in June, stopping that company’s oil from passing through Ukrainian territory to Slovak and Hungarian refineries.
The assertion from Hungary’s Peter Szijjarto, which he made without providing evidence, came a day after the European Commission declined a request from Hungary and Slovakia for it to mediate between them and Ukraine over the sanctions.
Maybe Orbán could negotiate some sort of compromise. Ukraine could, for example, stop sanctioning Russian oil companies, and in return, Russia would stop invading Ukraine.
:O
Hungary can go fuck itself. Those asshats are leeches of the EU and boot lickers of the ruzzian Führer.
Regards, an EU-citizen.
Ukraine isn’t part of the EU so the whole thing falls out of the EU’s jurisdiction. Not sure what Hungary is expecting here. They had more than enough time to look for alternatives too by now, just like everyone else.
As a protest, Hungary should sever all relations with the terrible totalitarian EU.
Also I think they should consider moving into russia - there should be enough vacant space.
EU be like
Hungary knows Russia is a bully very well from their 1956 revolution getting crushed. Why do they continue to be Russia’s bitch? Is Orban stupid?
I’m going to go out on a limb and say money
Uuuh yes? That’s the whole point yes
Wth is Hungary still in EU? Less mone for Orban and the plutocrats there.
