The head of the Slovak Smer Social Democratic Party, who in charge of forming the new Slovak government, Robert Vitso, announced that his government will work to restore sovereignty to Slovakia’s foreign policy, and disengage from what is being said in Brussels and Washington.
In an interview with the Czech website A-Portal, Vetso pointed out that Slovakia has its own interests, and that is why it will work to adopt sovereign decisions, whether it comes to illegal immigration, sending weapons to Ukraine, or imposing sanctions on Russia, which mainly harm the European Union.
Vetso stressed that his party will not abandon what it has been said from the beginning, which is the necessity of seeking a peaceful solution to the war in Ukraine, and therefore his government will refuse to send any weapons to Ukraine.
Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová assigned Vitso, head of the winning party in the early parliamentary elections that took place last Saturday, to form the new government, and gave him two weeks to do this task.
