Anita Orbán met with the American Secretary of State

Hungary signed two cooperation agreements with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, focusing on energy infrastructure and law enforcement against radical organizations. The agreements aim to enhance regional gas and oil infrastructure and strengthen information exchange in crime prevention. The Trump Peace Pipelines Framework, initiated by the Trump administration, seeks to develop pipelines and LNG terminals in Central and Eastern Europe to replace Russian gas imports. While the EU aims to reduce fossil fuel use, the U.S. prioritizes market acquisition and geopolitical influence. Critics warn that increased dependency on U.S. LNG could lead to geopolitical leverage rather than true security for Europe.
