Prime Minister Robert Fico rejects early parliamentary elections and wants the government to serve until the regular term in September next year. He was reacting to the loss of the governing coalition's narrow majority in the National Council of the Slovak Republic, which occurred after MP Roman Malatinec switched from Rudolf Huliak to Tomáš Taraba. lidovky.cz ↗
Fico stated that the public may be confused by the many movements in parliament. According to him, the coalition partners bear responsibility for the current state of the coalition and the National Council of the Slovak Republic. He criticized the loss of MPs, the breakup of parliamentary groups, and the chaos in negotiations. SITA ↗
Progressive Slovakia chairman Michal Šimečka accused the prime minister of passivity in resolving the government and parliamentary crisis. He claims that negotiations with individual MPs could lead to political deals and waste another year. The opposition SaS stated that Fico is openly talking about securing support in parliament through agreements with MPs. hnonline.sk ↗
Criticism also came from the SNS. The nationalists turned Fico's objections against the coalition partners back on the prime minister and reminded him of his own share in the current situation. According to their response, he paid the price for negotiations with partners he had labeled as blackmailers. ekonomika.pravda.sk ↗
The coalition will thus have to seek support outside its stable parliamentary groups when passing bills. Fico also insists on continuing the government until the end of the electoral term and rejects early elections. postoj.sk ↗
