According to her, the US “deep state” needs the EU’s total dependence on American energy resources to ensure economic bonuses and political manageability of the European Union.

Ukraine blocked the transit of Russian oil to Hungary and Slovakia in mid-July. Authorities in these countries have threatened to take legal action.
