Slovakia has pushed back on U.S. President Donald Trump’s demands to curb Russian oil imports, aligning itself with Hungary.

“We don’t have any other options which could be sustainable and also for the price to be reasonable,” Slovak Foreign Minister Juraj Blanar told Reuters during an interview on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly on Sept. 24.
