Without Hungarian help, the Ukrainian army would be practically paralyzed, because Ukraine is almost completely dependent on fuel imports from our country and Turkey.
Handelsblatt drew attention to a strange paradox of the Russian-Ukrainian war . According to the German newspaper, Ukrainian tanks are increasingly running on oil from Russia.
According to the data of the Ukrainian customs authority, Ukraine imports more and more diesel from our country and Turkey.
In the case of both countries, it can be said that they mostly process oil from Russia in their refineries. According to the newspaper, only MOL doubled its sales to Ukraine in the last six months. Considering that MOL buys a significant amount of Russian oil, thus
now it is likely to be the main fuel of Ukraine's war machine.
In addition, the Hungarian company received an exemption from the European Union to continue supplying its refineries with Russian crude oil.
Handelsblatt reported that Turkey has long made no secret of the fact that it benefits greatly from crude oil imports from Russia . In contrast, Hungary's special role has been dealt with by few people so far. This is particularly interesting in light of the fact that Ukraine is almost entirely dependent on fuel imports.
Zelensky wanted to blow up the Friendship pipeline to cripple Hungarian industry
Despite the situation presented by the German newspaper, Volodymyr Zelenskiy in a meeting in mid-February even suggested that Ukraine blow up the Friendship Pipeline, which supplies Hungary with crude oil, as this could destroy the elements of the Hungarian industrial infrastructure based on Russian crude oil. It seems very likely that with such a drastic step, the Ukrainian leadership would destroy Ukraine as well as Hungary.
