What Happened
US Vice President JD Vance called Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's comments about Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban "scandalous" during a Budapest visit Wednesday. Vance echoed Hungary's accusations that Ukraine is interfering in Hungary's April 12 election by stopping Russian oil flows. Ukraine says a Russian drone damaged the pipeline in January. Zelenskyy previously suggested the responsible person could be addressed by Ukrainian forces. Vance criticized media coverage of foreign interference, comparing it to alleged Russian influence in 2016 US elections.
