South Stream Deals With Seven European Countries, Including Hungary May Violate EU law
Bilateral agreements on the South Stream gas pipeline are a violation of EU law, the European Commission declared yesterday. The agreements concluded by Russia with seven European countries, including Hungary, must be renegotiated, the European Commission’s director for energy markets Klaus-Dieter Borchardt told the European Parliament on Wednesday.

He declared that the seven countries in question should seek a renegotiation of agreements with Russia to bring them in harmony with EU law.
