Hungary did not see any progress when it came to the resumption of gas deliveries through Ukraine, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said on Tuesday.
“We don’t see any kind of forward progress, however, when it comes to the reopening of the deliveries of gas through Ukraine,’’ Szijjarto said in an interview.
On Jan. 1, Russian gas transit via Ukraine stopped due to the expiry of a 2019 contract between Russia’s Gazprom and Ukraine’s Naftogaz.
The Russian company said it had neither the legal nor the technical capacity to continue pumping gas into the pipeline that supplied Moldova and four EU countries.
The four EU countries are namely Slovakia, Austria, Italy, and the Czech Republic. (RIA/NAN)
