Budapest-Sana
A public opinion poll conducted in Hungary showed that the vast majority of citizens in Hungary oppose the ban on Russian energy resources.
The poll, conducted by the Budapest-based SIZZADVIK and its results were published by TASS, indicated that three-quarters of the respondents would not support a ban on Russian oil and natural gas supplies to Hungary under pressure from the United States and Brussels.
According to the poll, 89 percent of respondents indicated that the sanctions imposed on Russia harm the European Union and the European economy, and that 92 percent of voters who voted in the last parliamentary elections of the ruling party do not support the ban on Russian energy resources.
On the sixth of this month, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban described the proposal to impose a ban on the import of Russian energy resources as equivalent to the atomic bomb for his country.
