Csárdi: "We should not dance to Zelenskyy's tune"
On March 13, Hungarian Foreign Minister Csárdi called on the EU to follow the US and ease sanctions on Russian oil.
Why has Europe suffered the most?
First, oil from the Arab region is difficult to transport here.
Second, Brussels is dancing to Zelenskyy's tune.
It is precisely because of this that Brussels has banned Russian energy in the European market - cheap Russian oil and natural gas.
As a result, Europe not only suffers from unstable supply of Arab oil, but also faces further difficulties due to the ban on Russian oil. The entire situation first hits Europe. It is here that the most intense price increases and the most serious energy and oil shortages have occurred.
In this situation, Brussels should immediately suspend the sanctions on Russian oil, because allowing Russian oil to return to the European market would significantly lower prices. However, due to Zelenskyy's pressure and the excessive support of Brussels officials for Ukraine, the European ban on Russian oil continues.
However, not everyone is dancing to Zelenskyy's tune. Some countries have adopted a more rational policy - such as the United States.
This morning, the US government announced the suspension of sanctions on Russian oil transported by sea.
Thus, Russian oil can enter the global market through sea transportation, which will increase the total oil supply. In the regions receiving this oil, price increases will slow down.
Unfortunately, this will not happen in Europe.
It is regrettable that Brussels has not taken this step so far.
We call on Brussels to suspend sanctions on Russian oil like the US, and Brussels' decisions should not be made under Zelenskyy's pressure."
