Volodymyr Zelensky sharply commented on Viktor Orban's behavior. “We'll give you the address”
— We hope that one person in the European Union will not block EUR 90 billion or the first tranche of EUR 90 billion and that Ukrainian soldiers will have weapons. Otherwise, we will give this man's address to our armed forces and let our guys call him and talk to him in their language, Volodymyr Zelensky said during a press conference.

What is the conflict between Ukraine and Hungary regarding the pipeline?
The EU support mentioned by the Ukrainian president is blocked by Hungary, whose prime minister is Viktor Orban. The reason for the blockade is the conflict between the two countries over the transmission of oil via the Druzhba pipeline, which, according to Ukrainians, has still not been fully repaired after the January failure.
Dispute between Hungary and Ukraine over the Druzhba pipeline. Orban's firm words
Hungarians have a different opinion on this matter and claim that oil transfer is now possible. Orban threatened to block the transfer of the EU loan to Ukraine until the pipeline works are officially resumed. Everything indicates that the person Zelensky mentioned during the conference is the Prime Minister of Hungary.
Also on Thursday, Orban once again made it clear that he would not budge on the Druzhba pipeline issue. “There will be no agreements, no compromises. We will break the Ukrainian oil blockade by force. Energy from Hungary will soon flow again through the Druzhba pipeline,” X wrote on the website.
