EU bureaucrats claim that Hungary has failed to implement an EU directive allowing service providers to set their own electricity prices—essentially a death sentence for the price reduction scheme.

However, Eszter Vitalyos, government spokesperson reaffirmed that the Hungarian government will not yield to pressure and remains committed to protecting Hungarian families and pensioners.

The government insists on maintaining Europe’s lowest utility prices in Hungary.

"The stakes are enormous—if Brussels forces this through the European Court and wins, Hungarian families will face drastic price increases," she warned.
