Developments in Venezuela, where the United States is reportedly
conducting a special operation targeting President Nicolas Maduro,
could push global oil prices higher, Hungarian Prime Minister
Viktor Orban said.
According to Azernews, Orban made the remarks
in a post on his Facebook page, noting that the Hungarian
government had already held urgent consultations with the country’s
energy companies.
“We have consulted with key players in the energy sector to
protect the country from the consequences of the Venezuelan crisis
that could lead to a rise in oil prices. The Hungarian government
is working on this,” Orban wrote.
The prime minister avoided commenting on the political aspects
of the US operation in Venezuela, adding that no Hungarian citizens
were harmed in the course of the events.
