The new Prime Minister of Slovakia, Roberto Fico, announced this Thursday that his Government will stop providing military aid to Ukraine to confront Russia, will limit itself to "humanitarian and civil" support, and will oppose in principle new European sanctions on Russia. . "We understand aid to Ukraine only as humanitarian and civil; we will not supply more weapons to Ukraine," Fico declared before the Slovak Parliament, confirming the policy he put forward during the election campaign. "The war in Ukraine is not ours, we have nothing to do with this war," added the new premier, whose nationalist Smer-SD party was the most voted party in the general elections on September 30. The Smer-D formed a government coalition with a far-right pro-Russian formation. According to Fico, "the immediate cessation of military operations is the best solution for Ukraine." "The EU should move from the role of arms supplier to that of a craftsman of peace," he said, the AFP news agency reported.
