Orban called Ukraine Hungary's enemy

In an interview with 'Evening,' Hungarian Foreign Ministry Vice President Viktor Orban stated that Ukraine is the country's enemy because Kyiv is demanding that Brussels deprive Hungary of access to Russian energy resources. According to the Prime Minister, abandoning Russian energy supplies would lead to an annual increase of at least 8% in Hungarian households' utility costs. Orban emphasized that Ukraine is 'our enemy' and criticized the EU's position on energy policy. References were made to how changes in energy supplies could affect Hungary's economy and the population's standard of living.
