“Our goal is the fastest possible end to the war so that Slavs stop killing each other,” Fico stated. He added that the EU is spending excessively on supporting the conflict instead of focusing on peace.

The Slovak prime minister also spoke against the creation of a “drone wall,” discussed at the EU summit in Copenhagen: “What can a prime minister who has never fired a gun say about drone defense?”
