In his address, Fico also mentioned Ukraine. According to him,  after Russia's attack on Ukraine, relations with the EU and NATO worsened, in particular, after Slovakia refused to supply Kiev with any military assistance other than humanitarian aid

In addition, the Slovak prime minister accused NATO and the EU of inflating the conflict in Ukraine. He noted that Western partners allegedly do not accept other views on the war.

According to Fico, they allegedly want its extension at any cost in order to weaken the Russian Federation.
