Putin's Ally Robert Fico Shot: Slovakia PM Assassination Attempt Jaw-Dropping Moment

Prime Minister Robert Fico of Slovakia was shot outside the House of Culture in Handlova, causing shockwaves throughout the nation.

The incident, involving four shots, led to swift law enforcement action, with a suspect detained and the scene cordoned off.

Deputy Speaker of Parliament Lubos Blaha confirmed the attack, prompting an adjournment of parliamentary proceedings.

Slovakian President Zuzana Caputova and political opposition leader Michal Ơimečka condemned the assault, expressing concern for Fico's recovery.

A circulated video captured the chaotic aftermath as Fico was assisted into a waiting vehicle, though his condition remained uncertain.

The shooting has reignited debates about Fico's leadership, marked by polarising rhetoric and controversial policies.

As Slovakia grapples with the attack's aftermath, questions linger over its impact on political stability.

President Putin holds firm despite push from the U.S. – Is a peace deal possible?

U.S Special Envoy Steve Witkoff recently met Russian President Vladimir Putin in a bid to persuade Russia for a ceasefire deal in Ukraine. This was the 4th such meeting in just over 2 months, but there seems to be no breakthrough yet as Putin remains firm recognition of Russia's control over Crimea and the four regions under Russian control since 2022. With peace talks stalling, could a Putin-Trump summit be the only path forward? #UkraineRussiaWar #RussiaUkraineWar #Putin #Trump #UkraineConflict #UkraineCrisis #Warzone #Warzone #PeaceTalks #CeasefireTalks #Witkoff #Ceasefire #Crimea #Zelensky #Geopolitics #BreakingNews #USRussia

He criticized Kiev’s stance, especially on Crimea, and hinted Zelensky was tougher to negotiate with than Putin. Meanwhile, Vice President Vance echoed similar concerns, and Secretary of State Rubio warned of the US abandoning talks if delays persist.
