The rise in oil prices, Hungary calls on the European Union to lift the sanctions on Russian energy.

Due to the interruption of the "friendship" oil pipeline and the continuous escalation of the situation in the Middle East, oil prices in Hungary have recently risen. In response, Hungarian Prime Minister Orban and Foreign Minister Szijjrt called on the European Union on the 9th to lift sanctions on Russian energy. Hungarian Prime Minister Orban stated on the 9th that the EU needs to reassess and lift the sanctions on Russian energy, and he has already written to European Council President Michel and European Commission President von der Leyen on the same day. In addition, Hungarian Foreign Minister Szijjrt stated that the situation in the Middle East severely affects European energy security, and on top of the sanctions on Russian energy, European energy supply is severely lacking, and prices will rise. Hungarian Foreign Minister Szijjrt: If the EU does not lift the sanctions, it will deal a huge blow to the European economy, because energy prices are rising, and the increase in energy prices will lead to an increase in all prices. Therefore, if the EU does not allow Russian energy to return to the European market, there is a risk of a significant increase in prices in Europe.
