U.S. President Donald Trump told Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán he was “very angry” after a Ukrainian drone strike damaged the Druzhba oil pipeline that delivers Russian crude to Hungary, according to a Politico report and statements from Orbán’s office. The Hungarian side said the attack briefly disrupted supplies on the southern branch of the pipeline, which also serves Slovakia. In a message relayed by Orbán, Trump said, “I do not like hearing this. I am very angry about it,” adding that the Hungarian leader was “a great friend” and asking him to notify Slovakia. Trump’s comments highlight tensions between Washington and Kyiv over collateral effects of Ukraine’s campaign against Russian energy infrastructure, while underlining Budapest’s reliance on Russian oil despite European efforts to curb imports.
