Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico expressed his concern regarding the European Union's approach towards Russia, emphasizing that the war in Ukraine is not Slovakia's.

Fico warned about the dangers of the mentality of confronting Russia and promised that Slovakia will not be drawn into conflicts. He emphasized the importance of the Visegrad Group (V4) and suggested that if Andrej Babis becomes prime minister, this group could become a strong regional player in Europe, promoting national interests, especially in the energy sector.
