Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban announced on Saturday that his government is also considering cutting the emergency electricity aid to Ukraine if it does not restore the oil supply to his country, like Slovakia threatened it would.
Speaking at a rally in Bekescsaba, Orban noted that Hungary has already halted diesel deliveries to Ukraine and blocked the European Union's €90 billion loan to the conflict-hit country in response to the pause in oil transfer through the Druzhba pipeline. "There is another option, which is being considered cautiously for now," he said. "If this is stopped, harsh things could happen."
Meanwhile, it was reported that Ukraine has notified the European Commission that the Odessa-Brodsky pipeline could replace the damaged and defunct Druzhba to transport oil to countries such as Hungary and Slovakia.
