Energy Crisis and Sanctions: Putin's Critical Meeting with Slovakia’s Fico Amid Gas Supply Breakdown
Russian President Vladimir Putin is set to meet with Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico, as European energy security faces new challenges.
With the expiration of Russia-Ukraine gas transit agreements, Slovakia’s reliance on Russian gas is in jeopardy, prompting tensions and potential retaliatory actions.
This meeting comes amid growing concerns about U.S. sanctions on Serbia’s energy sector and the broader geopolitical impact on Europe’s winter preparedness.
Watch as this high-stakes meeting unfolds, potentially reshaping energy dynamics and international relations in Eastern Europe.
A secret Western plan to secure post-war Ukraine has been revealed, with France, the UK, and top U.S. generals reportedly shaping a strategy to deploy over 10,000 foreign troops after a peace deal with Russia. The proposal includes training forces for Ukraine’s army and a “reassurance force” to stabilize the nation. President Macron confirmed 26 nations have pledged support, forming a “coalition of the willing.” Moscow strongly opposes the plan, warning that any foreign troops could become legitimate targets.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has bluntly rejected Vladimir Putin’s invitation to Moscow for peace talks, calling Russia’s capital a “terrorist” city. Speaking to ABC News, Zelensky said he could not travel while Ukraine remained under relentless missile and drone attacks. Putin claimed security would be guaranteed, but Zelensky insisted discussions must happen in Kyiv. While Trump has attempted to broker talks between both leaders, and Putin signaled openness to direct dialogue, the Kremlin maintains the timing is “not ready.” Hopes for peace remain distant amid ongoing war.

Former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has launched a scathing attack on Western-led security guarantees for Ukraine, calling them “worthless without Moscow’s input.” Speaking after a Paris summit hosted by Emmanuel Macron, where 26 nations pledged military backing for Kyiv, Medvedev dismissed the pledges as “complete nonsense” and accused the coalition of ignoring Russia’s role. He further warned that Russia will adjust its military posture along the NATO-Finland border, escalating tensions in Europe as the war in Ukraine enters a dangerous new phase.

Putin has stunned the West with a surprise signal on Ukraine, suggesting that Moscow could offer security guarantees under certain conditions. Speaking after talks with Donald Trump and Slovak PM Robert Fico, Putin contrasted Trump’s “new approach” with Biden’s policies, stressing that Ukraine’s EU path may be possible but NATO membership remains a hard red line. The move has ignited speculation about a potential geopolitical shift in the Ukraine war.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico met Russian President Vladimir Putin at the SCO Summit, drawing sharp criticism from Brussels. Despite Slovakia’s EU and NATO membership, Fico vowed deeper energy cooperation with Moscow and announced opposition to an EU plan to cut Russian oil and gas supplies. He lashed out at EU chief Ursula von der Leyen, calling EU leaders “frogs in a well.” Putin praised Fico’s independent stance and declared Russia has no objection to Ukraine joining the EU—but NATO membership remains off limits.

Ukraine has delivered a crushing strike on Russia’s vital Bryansk region, targeting the Druzhba oil pipeline that supplies crude to Hungary and Slovakia. Kyiv claims the attack caused massive fire damage, dealing a significant blow to Moscow’s energy empire. The pipeline, carrying over 1 million barrels per day, is a crucial source of revenue for Russia’s war machine. As Ukraine escalates strikes on Russian infrastructure, Moscow retaliated with its largest air assault since 2022, even striking Kyiv’s Cabinet of Ministers building in a dramatic escalation.

Serbia is reeling as mass student protests spiral into violent clashes with police in Novi Sad. Demonstrators demanding accountability for a deadly station collapse hurled stones and bottles, prompting officers to respond with tear gas and rubber bullets. Several arrests and injuries have been reported as tensions grip the country. The student-led movement has already forced the Prime Minister’s resignation and triggered corruption probes, while President Aleksandar Vučić denounces the protests as “foreign-funded” and “violence disguised as activism,” raising fears of deeper political instability.

Belgrade, Serbia: Violence escalated across Serbia as anti-government protests entered their fifth consecutive night. In Valjevo, masked protesters set fire to the ruling Serbian Progressive Party (SNS) offices before clashing with riot police. Security forces deployed tear gas and stun grenades as demonstrators hurled fireworks and rocks in Belgrade and Novi Sad. The protests, sparked by a deadly railway station collapse last year that killed 16, have grown into a massive anti-corruption movement now demanding early elections. Viral videos showing police brutality have fueled outrage, including clips of officers beating unarmed protesters. Despite the resignation of the prime minister, President Aleksandar Vučić remains defiant, denouncing the unrest as a foreign-backed plot. Russia pledged support for the embattled leader, while the Council of Europe urged Serbian authorities to end excessive force. The nation now faces its biggest political crisis in over a decade.
