According to him, American President Donald Trump did not send them any messages about the abolition of fuel imports coming from the Russian Federation on the Druzhba oil pipeline.
“There was no such message, even nothing similar,” Siyyarto said.
He claims that European countries, publicly condemning Bratislava and Budapest for cooperation with Moscow, secretly acquire Russian energy carriers through Asian intermediaries.
Siyyarto also assured that an alternative way to ensure Hungary and Slovakia with oil – through a pipeline from Croatia – will not meet the needs of the two countries.

In response, Trump was informed that only Hungary and Slovakia were imported Russian oil.
Siyyarto, commenting on these messages, said that Hungary allegedly could not refuse Russian crude oil, because he has no other choice. While Budapest openly buys oil from the Russian Federation, “other European countries” do it secretly and “bypassing”, because “this is cheaper,” he said.
