NATO Collapse Begins? Slovak PM Fico Stuns NATO with Pro-Russia Shift |€20B Russian Oil Deal at Risk

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico stunned NATO and EU allies after rejecting proposed sanctions on Russian energy, calling them “ideological” and harmful to Slovakia’s economy. At a press conference, Fico questioned why Slovakia should pay high gas prices due to the Ukraine conflict, citing a €16–20 billion contract with Gazprom lasting until 2034. He warned of potential lawsuits if the contract is broken and predicted that “we’ll all cooperate with Russia again.” His remarks underline a growing rift in Europe over energy strategy and long-term Russian ties. #RussiaSanctions #RussiaUkraineWar #Russia #Ukraine #NATO #Slovakia #NATOAllies #Putin #RussianOil #SlovakPM #GasPrices #EnergyCrisis #RussiaUkraine #EuropeanUnion #GasContract #FicoStatement #EnergyNews #SlovakiaRussia #BreakingNews #RobertFico Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc 'Something Happened To This Guy': Trump Slams Putin For Russia's Fresh Attack On Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/something-happened-to-this-guy-trump-slams-putin-for-russias-fresh-attack-on-ukraine-4163675.html?ref=DMDesc Donald Trump Says Russia-Ukraine Ceasefire Talks To Begin 'Immediately' Following Call With Putin :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/donald-trump-says-russia-ukraine-ceasefire-talks-to-begin-immediately-following-call-with-putin-4158165.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.194~GR.125~
