Hungary will block a 90-billion-euro ($106 billion) EU loan for Ukraine until it resumes oil shipments to the country via the Druzhba pipeline, its foreign minister said on Friday after Budapest said it would tap strategic reserves to tackle a shortage.
Hungary and Slovakia, which have the only remaining refineries in the European Union using Russian oil through Druzhba, have been trying to secure supply since flows were halted on January 27 following what Ukraine said was a Russian drone attack that damaged pipeline infrastructure.
Both countries have blamed Ukraine for the delay in restarting the flows for political reasons.

Thought Zeepers would be all over this. Either its time zones or they haven’t rolled out of bed yet.
Given the late night posts on another very long thread, your guess is apt.
Been reading for a couple of years now that it was "Zaluzhny" -- no "Zelensky" -- no "Zaluzhny" -- no "Zelensky" -- no, some other small group but Ukrainian nonetheless, that blew up Nordstream.
And then then Druzhba pipeline was attacked. Seems as if "someone did something." And the stories flow on. Such as:
From the Ukrainian press....
Major Yevhen Karas stated that President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has a tough character, is not prone to compromise, and will not accept decisions imposed on Ukraine.In late 2024, from a Spanish YT channel....According to Censor.NET, this was stated by Yevhen Karas, commander of the 413th separate battalion of unmanned systems "Raid," in an interview with Nataliya Moseychuk.
"Zelenskyy has a tough character. He likes this fight. If he saw Putin, he would not restrain himself and could punch him in the face," Karas said.
And if the US starts pressuring him to betray his country, he might even shoot himself, Karas believes.
"Zelenskyy is the kind of person who could shoot himself. He is not a weak-willed guy, he has ambitions, Karas believes."

"Nuclear war is good for Ukraine" | Yevhen Karas, Ukrainian commander Intereconomía, 20 December 2024
And from about two months ago....
Volodymyr Zelensky décore le néonazi Yevhen Karas, fondateur du groupe C14 Daily Motion, posted circa 27 December 2025And another hotlink....Translation from the French: "Volodymyr Zelensky decorates neo-Nazi Yevhen Karas, founder of the group"
Zelensky’s Officer Threatens Hungary With Military Invasion + Video Magyar Nemzet, 11 February 2026If the Ukrainian source, CENSOR, is to be accepted, then "negotiations" are a song-and-dance to continue things.
And Hungary is reacting to actions by the government in Ukraine, which will of course be deemed as "unfair."
Hungary is one of the few places left with any common sense.
Zelensky is actually threatening Hungary with invasion?
This is insane.
NATO would have a valid Article 5 demand from Hungary to intervene on behalf of Hungary against Zelensky.
How crazy would that be? Not that Hungary would necessarily need NATO. They would kick the Ukrainian forces out of Hungary and do a lot of damage to the Ukraine in the process.
The sort of desperate and irrational messaging coming out of Ukraine these days is sobering - they are even pushing the use of nukes.
And The Putin would probably kick Little Zelya's sniveling gay-dancing ass....
This is why Orban needs to go
Only another 7 weeks for this clown, then he gets voted out ... even Hungarians have had enough!!
The U.S. secretary of state said in Budapest that the president was “deeply committed” to the success of Viktor Orban, who has boasted of creating an “illiberal state.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2026/02/16/world/europe/rubio-hungary-elections-orban-trump.html
Orban is clinging to his last days of power, being down 10-20% in polls and the election next month. The blowback to all these strongmen trying to flex is going to be immense.
