Hungary will strengthen the protection of the critical energy infrastructure in order to protect it from further hostile actions by Ukraine, Orban said in a video on social media.
"Military personnel and equipment necessary to prevent attacks will be deployed near key energy facilities. Police with an increased number of forces will patrol areas around power plants, distribution stations and control centers," Orban said.
On Monday, Hungarian Foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said that Hungary had blocked the 20th package of anti-Russia sanctions and the 90 billion euro loan ($106 billion) to Ukraine due to Kiev's shutdown of the Druzhba oil pipeline.
