Details
It is noted that in the Russian capital, Fico called himself the "black sheep of the European Union."
After laying a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier near the Kremlin, he told Russian journalists that he wanted to "ask Putin a few questions" and convey a message from European politicians
According to the head of the Slovak government, he stated that he cares about "standard relations" between his country and the Russian Federation.
There is always a black sheep in the European Union. So I belong to that flock. I say this everywhere, so I have no problem saying it here too – I am against a single mandatory opinion. Such an approach is very wrong
In addition, he reiterated that he hopes for an end to the Russian war against Ukraine and is a supporter of any form of ceasefire.
I want to express my belief that we are approaching the end of the Russian-Ukrainian story
