Budapest: Russian gas and oil deliveries to Hungary will continue, Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said on Thursday during a visit to Russia where he held talks with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak and top Rosatom and Gazprom officials.
The European Commission aims to ban EU Russian gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) imports by the end of 2027, a move which Hungary and Slovakia have opposed.
“Agreed with Russian officials and energy company leaders to maintain our cooperation, despite efforts by Brussels and Kyiv to undermine it. Oil deliveries continue, gas flows via TurkStream, Paks II (nuclear project) moving forward,” Szijjarto posted on X.
