A European Country Wants to Block the 20th Package of Anti-Russian Sanctions

Hungarian Foreign Minister Szijjarto: Budapest will block the 20th package of EU sanctions against the Russian Federation.

Budapest will block the 20th package of European Union (EU) sanctions against Russia due to the halt of the Druzhba oil pipeline, said Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto. He announced this on his page on social media X.

"Hungary will block it. As long as Ukraine does not resume oil transit to Hungary and Slovakia via the Druzhba pipeline, we will not allow decisions important for Kyiv to be made," the minister wrote.
