From media

Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico said Wednesday that he was targeted for opposing European policy on the Ukraine war.

Fico's remarks came in a prerecorded speech online in his first appearance to the nation since he was shot and wounded on May 15 in an assassination attempt in front of the House of Culture in the central city of Handlova.

“Ties between my political representation and EU and NATO partners have become tense following the Russian attack on Ukraine, when we have refused to provide Ukraine any military aid from our state reserves aside from humanitarian aid and continue to strongly prefer peace rather than war,” he said
