JD Vance arriving in Hungary to support Orban’s campaign for re-election

Hungary, nearly solitary among EU nations, has resisted pressures from Brussels to reduce its reliance on Russian fossil fuels. In Washington, Orban further pledged to increase purchases of US liquefied natural gas (LNG), along with US nuclear technology and fuel. Hungary is heavily reliant on Russian oil via the Druzhba pipeline from the east, and on Russian gas through the TurkStream pipeline from the south.
