Germany open to EU ban on Russian oil imports that excludes Hungary
Germany’s Economy Minister has revealed his country could support an oil ban on Russian imports that excludes Hungary.
Hungary is continuing to withhold support for more sanctions on Russian energy supplies following the country’s invasion of Ukraine.
Robert Habeck told German radio he was disappointed a proposed six-month phase out of Kremlin-backed oil supplies had still not been agreed between European Union (EU) member states.
He said: “If the Commission president says we’re doing this as 26 without Hungary, then that is a path that I would always support.”
