You didn’t just flick a switch to change your source of natural gas.

Well, unless you’re Trump and just love to watch the world burn

Yes. It takes a decade. Or two. You see, just 3 years was enough to create a plan. Not sure if it is an Orban-Fico-proof plan, but still a plan. In 3 years more they start to implement it. I’m sure. Just old silly impatient me.

so the companies can start thinking about it, and don’t have policy changes like every other day.

The problem is Hungary. Orban transferred ownership of the government share of the oil and gas company MOL to non profits. Those finance his own propaganda and support far right groups across Europe. Obviously the oil and gas comes cheaply from Russia.

So vetoes from Hungary all the way.

It has to hinge on Serbia,right? As a land locked nation, Hungary’s only border that isn’t EU or Ukraine controlled is through Serbia, so that’s the only route for oil and gas deliveries.
