‘We firmly reject the Ukrainian president’s intimidation’ – Zelensky threatens ‘future of Friendship depends on Hungary’s stance,’ after Kyiv attacks key pipeline again U.S. President Trump has said he is "very angry" about the attacks on Hungary's energy supply

In the wake of Ukraine attacking yet again the Druzbha or “Friendship” pipeline on Aug. 22, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has come out with a not-so-subtle warning of his own.

According to the Ukrainian Interfax, the Ukrainian president told press on Sunday that Ukraine has always supported friendly relations with Hungary, but that “friendship” really depends on the position of the Hungarian government.

Zelensky did not specify if he was referring to relations between the two countries or “friendship” as in the Friendship pipeline, but Ukrainian media state he was talking about the latter.

Hungary’s foreign minister, Péter Szijjártó, posted a clip of Zelensky’s threats on X, writing: “Zelensky used Ukraine’s national holiday to threaten Hungary. We firmly reject the Ukrainian president’s intimidation.”





Kyiv would then be clearly threatening Budapest that they will continue sabotaging the oil pipeline if the Hungarian government does not support Ukraine in its efforts against Putin, and potentially change its stance on Ukraine’s EU membership, which the Hungarian government opposes.



The Druzbha carries vital energy supplies to both Hungary and Slovakia, and Hungary’s foreign minister, Szijjártó, has repeatedly warned Kyiv not to strike again. After the latest damage, Hungary expects repairs to take a few days.

Heading into the cold winter months, this issue is sure to escalate, and U.S. President Trump has already expressed his displeasure, saying he was “very angry” about it.

Hungary is also a major supplier of electricity to Ukraine.
