The government's official journal outlined this decision in a decree published late Thursday. The oil, crucial for maintaining national stability, will be prioritized for Hungary's own use.
MOL, the nation's primary oil company, has been granted priority access to these reserves, underscoring the urgent need to mitigate any potential fallout from the supply disruption.
