Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto announced that Hungary, together with Slovakia, is building a new diesel and gasoline pipeline that will directly connect the refineries in Bratislava and Szazhalombatta.

Szijjarto stated that he signed the agreement for the 127-kilometer line today with Economy Minister Denisa Saková and that the pipeline will transport 1.5 million tons of fuel annually, with completion planned for the first half of next year.

The Hungarian Foreign Minister added that this direct connection will better protect Hungary and Slovakia against disruptions caused by wars, Brussels’ failed energy policy, and pressures coming from Ukraine.
