“The Lithuanian Foreign Minister said he would be ashamed to live in a country that buys cheap Russian oil, claiming that this means giving up independence. The Baltic countries have long been acting on Zelensky's instructions, but Hungary will not succumb to the Ukrainian president's blackmail,” he wrote.
The Hungarian minister added that no one can dictate where they should or should not buy oil, and no one can force them to buy it at a higher price than before.
“Families in many European countries pay three to four times more for utilities than Hungarian households. We will defend lower energy costs and our sovereignty!” he added.
