前言 在欧盟内部，关于对俄罗斯能源政策的分歧日益凸显，匈牙利总理欧尔班以其坚定的立场，成为了这场 博弈中的焦点人物。 他公然反对欧盟推动成员国放弃俄罗斯能源的做法，称其"荒谬至极"，并表示布达佩斯方面将继续抵制 这一政策。 本周，欧盟能源部长会议经过讨论与磋商，正式对欧盟委员会此前提出的一项涉俄能源政策提议予以支 持。 根据该提议的核心规划，欧盟将以对莫斯科实施制裁为重要背景，推进能源供应结构调整，目标是到 2028年实现完全淘汰俄罗斯石油和天然气的使用，彻底切断与俄罗斯在这两大核心能源领域的依赖关 联。 除了明确2028年的终极淘汰目标外，该提议还包含一项具体的实施细则。 自2026年1月1日起，欧盟各成员国将被禁止与俄罗斯方面签署任何新的天然气运输协议，这一禁令将覆 盖所有未达成共识的新增合作项目。 不过，考虑到部分成员国此前已与俄罗斯签订且仍在履行期内的天然气运输合同，提议中也作出了例外 规定，此类已商定的既有合同可按照原有条款继续执行，不受新禁令的影响。 值得注意的是，这一涉及欧盟能源供应格局调整的政策提议，在欧盟内部并未形成统一共识，反而引发 了不同立场的分歧。 其中，匈牙利的反对态度尤为鲜明且坚决 ...
