Fyi Russia destroyed it and when Ukraine tried to repair it, russia killed the workers during the repair. So maybe hungary should talk to someone else about the issue

Yeah just let putin’s lapdogs snoop around your strategic infrastructure while you’re at war, no biggie

Even if (big if) they want to fix it, are they paying? lol

If russia strikes the same spot again and hungarian crews die, would you want to be known as the one who sent them there? And would it really be worth it? A country at peace losing supposedly highly skilled civvies for a bunch of gas that financed their (and ukrainian) deaths doesn’t sound great on a resume.
