Bulgaria has offered help to Hungary with oil supplies to its territory after Ukraine blocked pipeline deliveries from Russia, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said.
"My Bulgarian colleague has offered help in overcoming difficulties related to Ukraine’s ban on oil transit," he said following a conversation with the Bulgarian foreign minister.
"As a real friend and a reliable transit country, Bulgaria facilitates ensuring the security of Hungary’s energy provision. Last year 5.6 bln cubic meters of natural gas were supplied to Hungary via Bulgaria, while this year we managed to purchase 3.9 bln cubic meters of natural gas. We admitted that the European Union should indeed support energy security of Southeastern and Central European countries, facilitating infrastructure development," the minister stressed.

Slovakia may take retaliatory measures if Ukraine does not resolve the issue of oil transit from Russia, said Slovak President Peter Pellegrini said on Wednesday.
ReplyDelete"I consider what Ukraine did in relation to Slovakia to be a very serious matter and a very unpleasant interference in our good relations. I firmly believe that Ukraine will be able to put this in order as soon as possible, because Slovakia, as a sovereign state, will eventually have to take some kind of countermeasures. This would not benefit either Ukraine or its citizens," Pellegrini said at a press conference on Wednesday.
