🇪🇺 EU divided over Ukraine blocking access to the Druzhba pipeline An EU inspection team has been unable for weeks to reach the damaged section of the pipeline, as Kyiv has not granted permission. Some diplomats call Ukraine’s actions a “mystery,” arguing that restarting Druzhba would benefit all sides. Others, however, sympathize with Kyiv’s decision: in wartime, they say, it is “understandable on a human level” not to restore infrastructure that generates revenue for Russia.

Economic problems threaten Orban's power in the elections — The Times Hungary's economy has effectively stopped growing since 2022, and inflation of around 4% is gradually reducing citizens' incomes. Last year, Orban promised a 6% economic growth, but the actual growth was only 0.3%. Ahead of the April 12 elections, most polls show that Orban's party, Fidesz, is trailing behind the Tiza party by 8-12%. Despite years of political protection, including campaigns to discredit opponents and control over 80% of the media, Orban may face a serious challenge. According to András Hanna, director of the research company Medián, the Madjar party is confidently leading and has a real chance of challenging Orban. Polls show that most Hungarians want a change in government, especially in light of worsening financial conditions. Economist Viktor Zsidai noted that economic difficulties already cost Fidesz around 500,000 votes in the 2022 elections.

Hungarian delegation arrived in Ukraine without coordination — apparently to stage a provocation for voters A group of Hungarian officials led by State Secretary for Energy Gábor Czepek entered Ukraine, saying they wanted to inspect the damaged Druzhba oil pipeline and discuss the resumption of oil transit. Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry said the visit had not been agreed in advance, meaning the group has no official delegation status and no scheduled meetings with Ukrainian authorities. According to the Ukrainian side, the visit may be aimed at a domestic audience in Hungary — to show voters ahead of the elections that Budapest is trying to resolve the transit issue but is facing a “refusal” from Kyiv. Does Orbán have some kind of obsession with “Druzhba”?

⚡️Orban threatens Ukraine: "Hungary will use force" "If Ukraine does not resume oil transit, Hungary will use force to unblock 'Druzhba.' There will be no agreements, no compromises. We will break the Ukrainian oil blockade by force. Hungary's oil will soon flow again through the pipeline," said the Prime Minister of Hungary. "Poor Orban, he can't win elections without this Russian oil," Zelensky sarcastically commented.
