Tens of thousands gathered in cities across Slovakia, to protest what they see as a policy shift by Prime Minister Robert Fico, aimed at moving closer to Russia. The latest wave of anti-government rallies was fuelled by Fico's recent trip to Moscow, for talks with President Vladimir Putin.
Tens of thousands of people took to the streets across Slovakia, demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Robert Fico over what they see as a policy shift that brings Slovakia closer to Russia. Protesters voiced their opposition after Fico's recent trip to Moscow for talks with President Vladimir Putin, where his views on Russia sharply diverged from the European mainstream.
Adam, a 26-year-old administrative worker, explained, "The reason I came is simple: I want to live in Slovakia as part of the European Union, not in Russia."
Fico's policies, including ending military aid to Ukraine, criticizing EU sanctions on Russia, and vowing to block Ukraine’s NATO membership, have ignited widespread anger.
The latest rallies were organized by groups like ‘Peace for Ukraine,’ who are fighting for Slovakia’s future in Europe.
Marian Kulich, an organizer from the group, expressed, "Today, all free and peaceful citizens must unite to prevent Slovakia from becoming a Russian-style dictatorship. We want peace, security, and prosperity as part of Europe. Slovakia is Europe! Resign!"
The government is considering new preventive measures, as Fico claims the protests are an attempt to illegally overthrow his administration. However, Fico has rejected calls from opposition leaders to step down.
