At the end of 2014, Russia and Hungary signed documents on the construction of units 5 and 6 with VVER-1200 reactors. Russia agreed to provide a €10bn ($11.4bn) loan to Hungary to finance the project. In November 2015, the European Commission opened an infringement procedure against Hungary to determine whether the financing of the Paks project complies with EU public procurement rules.
