Today the action continues to break the Ukrainian oil blockade. Ukraine expects us to send money and weapons to the war and also to give up cheap Russian energy — yet while making these demands, they are shutting down the Druzhba oil pipeline. They are also refusing to allow an independent investigative committee to enter, even though such a body would clarify whether a technical fault occurred or whether political blackmail is taking place. Hungary, however, will not bow to any external pressure.

Meanwhile, Péter Magyar has also spoken out. He could have chosen to stand up for Hungary, but he did not: instead of calling the Ukrainian president, he urged us to fall in line with Brussels. Therefore, we call on him to immediately disclose what kind of contacts he discussed with the Ukrainians and what was said during their meetings in Munich.

At the same time, Slovakia and Hungary are setting up a joint investigative committee to finally receive a clear answer as to why the pipeline has been halted. Prime Minister Viktor Orbán has called on President Zelensky to allow the investigation and ensure the necessary conditions. Because the situation is simple — Hungary is defending its own interests, and it will not compromise on that.

Their country is at war, and meanwhile they amuse themselves by practically harassing their neighbor who is helping them. That is what is happening from the Ukrainian side right now: while for four years we have been providing humanitarian assistance to Ukrainians during the war, for weeks now they have been refusing to reopen the Druzhba oil pipeline. And it is not only Zelensky we are dealing with in Ukraine — we also have a Hungarian “Zelensky,” called Péter Magyar, who does not stand on the side of his own country, not on the side of national interest, but instead shields the Ukrainians and remains silent at a time when every normal, nationally minded Hungarian should speak up and demand that Ukraine stop the blackmail it has been carrying out in recent weeks.

It was not by chance that the prime minister decided, together with his Slovak counterpart, to establish an investigative committee tasked with determining why the Druzhba oil pipeline has not been restarted. The Hungarian prime minister, together with Robert Fico, is demanding from Ukraine and President Zelensky that Hungarian and Slovak experts be allowed to examine the Druzhba oil pipeline. We understand everything, we sympathize with the Ukrainians — they are in a difficult situation, as they are fighting a war — but it is unacceptable for them to toy with us, to mistreat a neighboring country that has been continuously helping them.

Narrative:

“Ukrainian blackmail + Brussels pressure + internal traitor → national resistance”

Actors:

  • Szentkirályi Alexandra
  • Orbán Viktor
  • Volodimir Zelenszkij
  • Magyar Péter
  • Robert Fico
  • European Union

Structure: Technique – Goal – Effect

1️⃣ Dramatizing an External Enemy – “Ukrainian oil blockade”

📌 Technique:

  • Frames a technical/supply dispute as a deliberate blockade.
  • Uses emotionally charged words such as “blackmail,” “they’re playing with us,” “they’re messing with us.”
  • Portrays the shutdown of the Barátság kőolajvezeték as political aggression.

🎯 Goal:
To present the energy issue not as a technical or geopolitical matter, but as a moral grievance.

💥 Effect:
The audience does not weigh data — they feel injustice.

2️⃣ Constructing a Victim Role – “We help them, they exploit it”

📌 Technique:

  • “We have been helping them humanitarily for four years.”
  • Emphasizes moral superiority.
  • Creates a contrast: helpful neighbor vs. ungrateful partner.

🎯 Goal:
To elevate the conflict into a moral dimension.

💥 Effect:
The energy supply dispute becomes a story about ingratitude.

3️⃣ Designating an Internal Enemy – “the Hungarian Zelensky”

📌 Technique:

  • Links Magyar Péter personally to Volodimir Zelenszkij.
  • Frames him in betrayal-like terms: “not standing on the side of national interest.”
  • Turns the issue into a question of moral loyalty.

🎯 Goal:
To transform political debate into a loyalty test.

💥 Effect:
The substance of arguments becomes secondary to the question: “Whose side are you on?”

4️⃣ False Dilemma – “Either with us or with Brussels”

📌 Technique:

  • Reduces reality to two options:
    • National sovereignty
    • “Falling in line with Brussels”
  • Presents the European Union as an external pressure actor.

🎯 Goal:
To simplify a complex foreign policy situation into an identity-based choice.

💥 Effect:
The audience decides emotionally rather than analytically.

5️⃣ Simplifying Closure – “The situation is simple”

📌 Technique:

  • “The situation is simple” → debate-closing formula.
  • Excludes complexity.

🎯 Goal:
To finalize the narrative and suppress doubt.

💥 Effect:
Uncertainty is framed as weakness.

🧠 Overall Picture

The communication follows a classic three-layer mobilization structure:

  1. External threat (Ukraine, blockade)
  2. External background force (Brussels)
  3. Internal traitor (the opposition)

This is an emotional sovereignty narrative, in which a technical energy supply issue is reframed as a national self-defense struggle.
