If we are not able to import gas from Russia, businesses and families will increase two and a half times. According to him, the restrictions of the European Union concerning Russian energy resources are damaged by inland countries that do not have a coast. According to Orban, Hungary had previously vetoed the restrictions and fought for an exception, but now he thinks they want to take it away, Cituje Kossuth Radio.
Orbán pointed out that it is “obvious fraud” that the EU wants to perceive such a step not as a sanction, but as a trade policy measure.
The Hungarian Prime Minister recalled that Two blocks are fighting against each other in every European country: One is promigural, supports the entry of Ukraine and increases the influence of Brussels, while on the other hand there are national governments, such as Hungary. “On the one hand, there are patriots, on the other hand federalists and friends of Ukraine,” Orbán.
