Il ministro dell’Economia croato “Ante Šušnjar” raddoppia la sua opposizione a Orban e Fico che si prendono gioco delle loro abilità matematiche. (Dichiarazione completa nei commenti)

Full statement:

Let’s do the math.

Százhalombatta (HU) can process at most 8 million tonnes per year, and the Bratislava refinery (SVK) 6 million. Domestic production in Hungary is around one million.

Let’s talk capacity.

The Adriatic pipeline can transport 15 million tonnes of crude per year from Omišalj to Hungary and Slovakia (you did the math, didn’t you?).
LINGUISTIC NOTE: in some European languages, “supplementary pipeline” apparently means “a pipeline able to cover basically everything.”

Now, let’s talk money.

Transport tariffs, whatever today’s number is, are a rounding error in the total cost (about 1 %), while Russian crude is ~30% cheaper than the alternatives.

P.S. All this noise is about money. Our pipes speak the truth – so should you.

And the tone of Hungary is not friendly or normal as you expect from your neighbors. It’s demanding, almost like ordering someone something.
