Hungary, Türkiye, and Slovakia Defy Pressure on Russian Oil

Hungary, Turkey, and Slovakia are still buying oil from Russia.

Even though the US and the EU want them to stop, they say they need the oil to keep their countries running.

They are choosing to keep getting oil from Russia, which helps Russia make money.

These countries say it is important for them to make sure they have enough energy for their people and that they can keep their economies stable.

The EU wants to stop using Russian energy, but these three countries say it is difficult to find other suppliers.
