Slovakia's poll winner defies European consensus on Ukraine
Sunday, 1 October 2023
Slovakia's pro-Russian and anti-liberal election winner, Robert Fico, is set to begin coalition talks to form a government. Fico's party, SMER-SSD, won nearly 23% of the parliamentary poll and is likely to oppose the European Union's military aid for Ukraine. Fico has expressed willingness to help Ukraine in a humanitarian way but is against arming them.
