FICO BLASTS BRUSSELS: Slovakia & Hungary Revolt Against EU’s “Dirty” Energy Vote Bypass

Описание: Slovakia and Hungary sharply criticised the European Union’s provisional plan to phase out Russian gas and oil by 2027, warning the move threatens their economies and violates established voting norms. Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said he had informed the US president that Russian energy supplies to the region were based on long-standing infrastructure rather than ideology, accusing Brussels of bypassing unanimity by using a qualified majority vote. Hungary’s foreign minister, Péter Szijjártó, called the regulation impossible to implement and warned it could triple household energy bills by creating a Western supply monopoly. Both governments argue the measures function as de facto sanctions and plan to challenge the decision at the EU’s top court.
