Wants to stop helping Ukraine: NATO country can get a pro -Russian leader - CNN

According to the authors of the article, Slovakia actively supports Kiev during a full -scale war. It accepted tens of thousands of Ukrainian refugees, and became the first country to send aircraft to Ukraine. However, according to journalists, with the arrival of Robert Fitzo, the support of Ukraine by Slovakia will sway.

The politician called on the Slovak government to stop supplying weapons to Ukraine and stated that if he became a prime minister, Bratislava "would not send another round of ammunition. " In addition, Fitzo said that Russian President Vladimir Putin allegedly decided to invade Ukraine because of the "Ukrainian Nazis and Nazis".

The political scientist and president of the Institute of Public Relations, Hryhoriy Mesezhnikov, pointed out that Fitzo was trying to present his attitude to the Russian Federation as a "peaceful" initiative. "He and his allies claim that we should not send weapons to Ukraine because it will delay the war. They say:" There will be peace if we stop supplying weapons to Ukraine "because if we do not, the conflict will end faster .

So, in fact, they are not supporters of peace, they are pro -Russian, " - explained the expert. Robert Fitzo has already held the post of Prime Minister of Slovakia from 2006 to 2010, but was forced to resign in March 2018 after the mass protests related to the murder of the investigative journalist Jan Kutsyak and his bride Martina Kushnirov. The journalist published information on corruption actions of elites, in particular persons related to Fitzo and his party.

Thus, the country is deprived of fuel dependence on Russia.
