Hungary Accuses Ukraine of Meddling Amid Budapest's 15-Year Contract for Gas Supplies With Russia
12:42 GMT 27.09.2021 (Updated: 13:54 GMT 06.08.2022) Earlier in the day, the Russian gas giant Gazprom and the Hungarian government signed a contract for gas supplies until the end of 2036.
Hungary has accused Ukraine of meddling in its internal affairs after Kiev criticised it over the signing of a new 15-year natural gas supply deal with Russia's Gazprom.
"(European) gas consumption will not decline, and Gazprom's role will not decline either...For Hungary, energy safety is a matter of security, sovereignty and economy rather than a political matter...You cannot heat homes with political statements."
Peter Szijjarto
Hungarian Foreign Minister
