Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico left the European Union summit in Brussels early on Friday afternoon. He then traveled to Novi Sad, Serbia, where he wants to support former president Aleksandar Vučić. By leaving, Fico skipped the discussion on migration. hnonline.sk ↗
Fico had already announced his trip to Serbia on Wednesday. He was originally supposed to travel there on October 3, but canceled the visit due to health problems. In the end, he set off for Novi Sad during the second day of the EU leaders' meeting. teraz.sk ↗
The Brussels summit is taking place amid discussions on further support for Ukraine, the European Union's next seven-year budget for 2028 to 2035, and energy issues. In Brussels, Fico pushed the topic of cheaper energy. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy also attended the talks, discussing matters with the leaders of member states. idnes.cz ↗
The Slovak prime minister's early departure from the meeting means he will not be present for part of the summit's agenda. His further program will focus on the visit to Serbia and supporting Aleksandar Vučić in Novi Sad. Further details about Fico's planned appearances in Serbia have not yet been disclosed.
