Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has announced that Hungary will halt gas supplies to Ukraine in response to the blocking of the Druzhba pipeline since 27 January. 'Hungary's energy security and protected prices will be maintained,' Orbán stressed in a video message on 25 March.

According to further clarification by Political Director of the Hungarian Prime Minister Balázs Orbán, the supplies will be gradually halted and the remaining volumes will be stored domestically to strengthen Hungarian reserves. 'We protect Hungarian families — NOT foreign demands,' Balázs Orbán underlined in a post on X.
