Protests Breaks Out in Slovakia Amid Growing Frustrations With PM Fico’s Russia Policy| Oneindia
Bratislava witnesses a massive protest against Slovakia's government, critiqued for its proximity to Russia.
Thousands voice support for Ukraine and opposition to Prime Minister Fico's policies, including skepticism toward EU aid for Ukraine and efforts to renew ties with Russia.
Concerns mount over Slovakia's foreign policy direction, sparking dissent and challenging the government's stance.
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.

In a dramatic turnaround, the Trump administration has resumed shipping weapons to Ukraine after a brief but controversial pause ordered by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. The move had caught even White House officials off guard and temporarily halted deliveries of key systems including Patriot missiles, GMLRS rockets, and 155 mm Howitzer rounds. Trump claimed no knowledge of the pause, stating he hadn’t given the order. Pentagon officials say the review was part of a broader stockpile assessment.
But amid growing pressure from both allies and U.S. lawmakers, shipments resumed quietly—now including precision-guided rockets and artillery shells. Trump cited Russia’s rising brutality and President Putin’s conduct as reasons for restoring deliveries. The weapons—especially the 155 mm rounds—are critical in Ukraine’s defense. With the largest drone attack yet launched by Russia, Trump’s decision underscores the escalating urgency of the war. Over $67 billion in U.S. military aid has been sent since 2022.

In a defiant statement ahead of key NATO-related discussions, French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu declared France’s “absolute red line” in the Ukraine conflict: demilitarizing Ukraine while denying it NATO membership. Lecornu told Valeurs Actuelles that Europe cannot accept a defenseless Ukraine outside NATO, directly rejecting Russia's long-standing demands for a neutral, demilitarized Ukraine.
Russia, in contrast, insists any peace deal must address its security concerns — including Ukraine’s NATO ambition and military status. Lecornu's remarks come ahead of a UK-French push to reshape Ukraine’s post-war military under a Western “coalition of the willing.” Meanwhile, Moscow warns such moves will escalate the war, with foreign forces seen as “legitimate targets.” Tensions mount as Putin claims Ukraine reneged on the 2022 Istanbul terms that would’ve imposed limits on its army. The future of Ukraine’s military — and its place in Europe — hangs in the balance.

As Trump pledges 10 Patriot missiles to Kyiv, the EU is preparing a massive €100 billion support plan for Ukraine, potentially the largest in the war. Framed as the final phase against Putin’s forces, the package—slated to begin in 2028—would blend grants and soft loans tied to reforms. Proposed under the EU’s next seven-year budget, it signals long-term Western backing. Moscow decries the move as NATO-driven escalation, warning it exposes the EU’s dependency on U.S. strategy.
