The Foreign Minister warned that this measure would quadruple energy costs for Hungarian households during a meeting with European ambassadors.

Brussels is moving in the wrong direction: it is promoting war, opening the doors to illegal migrants, and imposing its gender agenda, Szijjarto criticized on social media.

The Hungarian government had already rejected the European Commission’s plan to completely eliminate imports of Russian hydrocarbons by 2028.

For us, Hungary comes first, the Foreign Minister emphasized, stressing that they will defend national interests in the face of EU pressure. Meanwhile, economic experts estimate that an abrupt cutoff of Russian supplies could cost the country up to six billion euros annually in alternative imports.
