Kaliňák faces pressure over hospital, furniture, and KUB systems
Construction of the new hospital in Prešov is to continue with a new consortium, which is to take over the project from June. During a visit to the construction site, Prime Minister Robert Fico announced completion in August 2027. Deficiencies were found at the construction site, including defective columns, which are to be removed. Kaliňák claims that construction supervision caught the problems in time, that the hospital is not an illegal (unauthorized) construction, and that, according to him, the costs are below market price levels. teraz.sk ↗
Another dispute concerns the KUB systems. The Democrats (Demokrati) claim that equipment from the armament of the Armed Forces of the Slovak Republic ended up with a private individual and was supposed to be headed to Uganda. Kaliňák rejected the suspicions and stated that the contract was concluded by former minister Jaroslav Naď. He admitted that the systems were sold to a private company as scrap for tens of thousands of euros, and that the company subsequently sold them for 10 million euros. aktuality.sk ↗
At the same time, the Ministry of Defense rejects criticism of the furniture purchase for Kukurica and states that the furniture will be Slovak. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Interior submitted for public comment a draft law on chief controllers of towns, municipalities, and regions, which is intended to unify the rules for oversight in local self-government.
