After a short visit to Robert Fico, I have to state that his health condition remains serious,
Pellegrini called on citizens to cooperate and understand each other in order to prevent an escalation of tensions.
"Political hatred or disagreement with the policies of a party or a person led to an assassination attempt. The Prime Minister miraculously escaped death. It was enough that the gunshot wounds were a few centimeters away, and today we would have to talk about other things," Pellegrini said.
He also called on citizens to renounce violence.
