Prime Minister Robert Fico, after a prior dispute with the European Parliament in Strasbourg, shifted his attention to regional and economic topics. At the V4 summit in Gödöllő, Hungary, he presented the priorities of Slovakia's presidency and emphasized stronger coordination among the Visegrád Four countries. aktuality.sk ↗
The dispute with the European Parliament concerned resolutions adopted in Strasbourg, which Fico described as unfair. During talks with European Parliament President Roberta Metsola, he spoke of a policy of double standards. Meanwhile, the European Parliament also dealt with other topics, including a proposal for new rules on air passenger rights and support of 14.3 million euros for Romania from the EU Solidarity Fund following floods. dennikn.sk ↗
At the regional level, Fico agreed with Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar to establish a working group on the contentious issues surrounding the Beneš decrees. After two years, the V4 resumed joint talks among its leaders, though its unity may be tested by differing positions on Ukraine, the Hungarian minority, and Russia. ta3.com ↗
At the same time, at a conference on the reconstruction of Ukraine in Gdańsk, Fico reiterated his view that the war has no military solution and that an earlier peace would facilitate postwar reconstruction. On this occasion, Slovakia signed an investment memorandum. At home, the prime minister also faces disputes over cheap energy for industry and criticism following a remark directed at a public broadcaster reporter, for which, according to Smer MP Ján Baláž, he should apologize. pravda.sk ↗
