About this episode

This episode examines Ukrainian perspectives on Hungary's actions regarding oil transit and European support amidst the ongoing conflict with Russia.

As Hungary ramps up pressure over oil transit, sanctions and European support for Kyiv, Yuliia Dziuba joins Wojciech Przybylski to explain how these moves are received in Ukraine. From the Druzhba pipeline dispute to Viktor Orbán’s political calculus, this episode examines whether Budapest is merely obstructing or actively weakening European solidarity at a critical moment in Russia's war against Ukraine.
