Magyar vs. Moscow: Hungary's new tough stance toward Russia

Hungary has taken a significant turn in its relations with Russia, expelling 10 Russian diplomats from the country. This move marks a departure from the warm ties established by Hungary's previous government. The new stance is likely to have far-reaching implications for trade and energy relations between the two nations, particularly given Russia's threat to halt gas supplies in response. This development may impact European markets, particularly those reliant on Russian energy imports, and could have broader implications for regional politics and economic stability.
