Croatia's Prime Minister Lowers Expectations on Hungary's Oil Supply Alternatives

Croatia's Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic has tempered expectations regarding Hungary's potential use of a pipeline managed by Croatia to substitute Russian oil supplies disrupted by a blockage in Ukraine. Bloomberg posted on X, highlighting Plenkovic's remarks, which suggest that the pipeline may not be a viable solution for Hungary's energy needs. The disruption in Ukraine has prompted Hungary to seek alternative sources, but Croatia's stance indicates limited options through its infrastructure. The situation underscores the broader challenges faced by European nations in securing energy supplies amid geopolitical tensions.
