According to the Hungarian Prime Minister, Budapest's position remains unchanged - the financial decision is directly linked to the resumption of oil transit.
Through Brussels, we received a signal from Ukraine that they are ready to resume oil supplies through the Druzhba pipeline as early as Monday if Hungary unblocks the €90 billion EU loan.
He added that after the resumption of supplies, Hungary would no longer hinder the approval of the loan.
No oil - no money. As soon as supplies are restored, we will no longer stand in the way of approving the loan.
Orbán also noted that the allocation of the loan does not create additional financial burden or obligations for Hungary.
