Hungarian PM's Warning to EU

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has threatened the European Union over the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine to Europe.

Orban stated that if the EU does not help resume the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine, Hungary will block any further sanctions on Russia by the EU.

Following the expiration of the agreement for the transit of Russian gas through Ukraine to Europe on January 1, a new crisis has erupted in Europe.

Orban emphasized that Ukraine's halt of the Russian gas transit and the increased prices are unacceptable. He also mentioned Hungary's request for energy security guarantees from the EU this week.
