The Interior Ministry has urged the supplier to immediately remove two radar devices from test operation. The reason is unclear circumstances regarding their origin, as the ministry's documentation has not sufficiently demonstrated where the equipment comes from. SITA ↗
The case follows opposition suspicions that new traffic camera systems on Slovak roads may be of Russian origin. Progressive Slovakia and the Christian Democratic Movement had previously called on Interior Minister Matúš Šutaj Eštok to explain the purchase and installation of technologies intended to be used by state security forces. MP Jaroslav Spišiak from PS wanted the minister to appear before the National Council of the Slovak Republic's Defense and Security Committee and explain the suspicions. interez.sk ↗
The Interior Ministry, faced with criticism, stated that it did not proceed secretly in modernizing traffic cameras and that it knows the technology manufacturer. At the same time, it announced that it would request the National Security Authority to conduct an independent assessment of the radars, their hardware and software solutions, communication methods, and possible technological interconnections. domov.sme.sk ↗
PS now claims that merely dismantling the two devices is not enough. The movement is calling on Šutaj Eštok to suspend the entire road radar project and is demanding verification of information security, protection of classified information, and the credentials of companies involved in the installation. Further developments will depend on the NSA's assessment, the ministry's actions, and possible negotiations of the defense and security committee. teraz.sk ↗
