Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has rattled Kyiv and EU capitals with his latest declaration: Slovakia will not send U.S. weapons to Ukraine and firmly rejects the idea of funding arms deliveries through the European Union. While reiterating support for Ukraine’s EU membership bid, Fico opposed its NATO accession and called instead for direct peace talks with Russia.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has shocked Kyiv and EU leaders by declaring that Slovakia will not support sending U.S. weapons to Ukraine at the EU’s expense and firmly opposes Ukraine’s accession to NATO. While Fico reaffirmed support for Ukraine joining the European Union, he criticized current Western strategies, called for peace talks involving Russia, and warned against what he described as a dangerous arms-funding model.

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.

Vladimir Putin has unleashed a shocking strike on Kyiv, with reports claiming Russia directly hit an EU office in the heart of the city. The move, framed by Moscow as a warning to the West, comes as Putin openly mocks Donald Trump, Volodymyr Zelensky, and Europe’s leadership in one chilling message of defiance. Explosions rocked the Ukrainian capital as Russia’s latest attack targeted diplomatic and civilian zones, drawing swift condemnation from EU leaders.

Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas issued a fiery warning to Vladimir Putin after reports of Russian strikes hitting EU offices in Kyiv. Condemning the attack as a direct assault on European institutions and peace efforts, Kallas accused Moscow of deliberately sabotaging any chance of negotiations. The bombing, which shook Ukraine’s capital, has sparked outrage across Europe and fueled calls for stronger sanctions and military support for Kyiv.

Hungary and Slovakia have issued a joint letter to the European Union sharply criticizing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky after Ukrainian drones struck the Druzhba oil pipeline — a key energy lifeline for Central Europe. The move has fueled speculation that Budapest and Bratislava could distance themselves from Kyiv and shift their stance within NATO and the EU.

A major escalation in Europe’s energy war: Russian crude oil flows to Hungary and Slovakia through the Druzhba pipeline have been suspended after an alleged Ukrainian attack on a transformer station. Hungary’s Foreign Minister Péter Szijjártó called the disruption “outrageous and unacceptable,” while Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry implied Hungary should blame Russia for starting the war. The halt comes just days before Trump, Zelensky, and EU leaders are set to meet — raising fresh questions about NATO unity, Europe’s energy security, and the future of the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has issued a chilling warning: Ukraine’s potential EU membership could drag Hungary and the entire Eastern European region into war. Speaking bluntly, Orban said Ukraine’s entry would turn Hungary into a battlefield, risking the lives of young Hungarians and destabilizing regional peace. Despite Ukraine’s 2022 EU candidacy and Brussels pushing for 2030 accession, Hungary, Poland, and Slovakia have voiced serious opposition, citing security, financial, and political consequences.
Orban also slammed the EU's seven-year budget proposal, claiming it's designed to fund Ukraine’s membership and could devastate the bloc. Hungary has already blocked several EU military aid packages to Kyiv and insists on a ceasefire. A recent referendum showed 95% of Hungarians oppose Ukraine’s EU entry. With mounting pressure from Brussels, Orban’s words now echo across a fragile Europe—will Ukraine’s EU dream come at the cost of continental peace?
