“We have made it clear that we will never support the extension of European Union sanctions against Russia to the energy sector,” RIA Novosti quoted him as saying on HirTV.
Gouyash also said that Hungary and nine other countries have already opened accounts in a Russian bank to pay for gas according to the rules proposed by Moscow.
According to him, other countries prefer not to talk about it.
The Hungarian Foreign Ministry also noted that the country would not support the imposition of anti-Russian sanctions on oil and gas supplies.
According to Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis, the European economy cannot completely abandon the supply of Russian natural gas.
