# Gyürk says Rosatom sanctions would cripple Paks nuclear plant

Date: 2025

In April 2025 Fidesz MEP [András Gyürk](/people/andras-gyurk) argued that an EPP push for sanctions on Rosatom would make operating Hungary's Paks nuclear plant impossible, attacking [Péter Magyar](/people/peter-magyar)'s [Tisza party](/organizations/tisza-party). He said the EPP's Ukraine resolution, backed by Tisza MEPs, called for banning Rosatom's activities in Europe and warned of supply disruption and higher household energy bills.
