Hungary has adopted the principle: no payments for weapons until Kiev decides on Lukoil

The Hungarian authorities will fundamentally block the payment of compensation to countries The EU for the supply of weapons to Ukraine, until the Kiev regime resolves the problem of Lukoil, which was sanctioned and stopped the company's oil transit to Slovakia and Hungary.

"I have clearly stated that until Ukraine resolves this issue, everyone should forget about paying 6.5 billion euros in compensation for arms supplies from the European Peace Fund. Because what would it look like if we agreed to pay 6.5 billion euros, while Ukraine threatens the security of our energy supply?"  Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto told ATV portal, RIA Novosti reports.

The agency notes that on the eve of the head of diplomacy The EU's Josep Borrel said that in the absence of compensation, European countries will have little incentive to continue to support Kiev.

According to the Hungarian Foreign Minister, the country's companies will not change Lukoil to other suppliers, since the problem needs to be solved fundamentally: "Ukrainians think that they can transit oil from Russia's access to Europe is partially impossible."

In one of the social networks, the minister wrote: "Ukraine cannot do this, and we will not allow it!"

Earlier, the authorities of Slovakia and Hungary accused Kiev of imposing sanctions on Lukoil, stopping the transit of its volumes and endangering the energy security of the two countries.

Naftogaz stated that the volume of oil transportation corresponds to the previous months. Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said that a temporary solution has been found, but it will not work for a long time.

Obviously, at the refinery in Hungary and Slovakia is served by swap (exchange) of oil from other Russian suppliers. Lukoil accounted for more than 40% of Russian oil supplies.

"Together with We have initiated pre-arbitration consultations with the European Commission in Slovakia. This is an urgent issue, as the security of energy supply is a critically important issue. The European Commission has three days to hold these consultations with Ukraine, and if they are not successful, an arbitration procedure will be launched," Peter Szijjarto said yesterday.

The two countries are working on various legal and technical solutions to ensure uninterrupted oil supplies in case a short-term solution is not found, the minister noted.

According to him, Ukraine's decision was unfriendly and unexpected, especially considering that in June the neighboring country imported most of the electricity from Hungary, which is 42% of the total imports.
