BUDAPEST, Dec 9 (Reuters) - The company operating the TurkStream gas pipeline will be able to conduct business without any problems after its move to Hungary from the Netherlands due to an agreement with Washington, Hungary's foreign Minister Peter Szijjarto said in a briefing on Tuesday.

The agreement also ensures that financial transactions related to the operation of Turkstream are not under U.S. sanctions, Szijjarto said during a briefing in Moscow that was broadcast on his Facebook page.
