Hungary remains firm in maintaining its supplies of Russian oil and gas, even as the European Union accelerates efforts to cut Russian energy imports

Three years into Russia’s war in Ukraine, one NATO member continues to rely on Moscow for most of its energy needs. Hungary, led by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, now sources more than 80 percent of its crude oil from Russia.

Hungary would suffer if it was cut off from Russian energy, Budapest's foreign minister said during a visit to Moscow on Wednesday, reiterating that the country would not accept outside pressure when it came to decisions on its energy supplies.

President Donald Trump criticizes NATO countries for continuing Russian energy purchases, saying China and India are primary funders of the ongoing war.
