Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán and his Slovakian peer Robert Fico today inaugurated a section of the Friendship I oil pipeline following an $80 mln renovation, which was flagged as an investment of "extraordinary significance" by both prime ministers, as it would increase security of crude supply to the region, Hungarian news agency MTI reported today.
