Details
Thousands of people took to the streets of Bratislava to express their support for Ukraine and their disagreement with a policy that is too close to russia.
Prime Minister Robert Fico has caused concern among the population since he came to power last year. He has criticized European military aid to Ukraine and expressed a desire to restore cultural and political ties with russia.
A key moment that caused particular outrage was the meeting between the Slovak foreign minister and his russian counterpart.
I am here because the actions of this government coalition cross all borders
According to reports, 5000 people attended the protest.
Recall
Earlier, Fico had refused to help Ukraine with weapons, arguing that it would not solve the conflict. However, Ukraine's Western allies rejected this argument, arguing that cutting off aid would lead to Ukraine's defeat.
