The Freedom and Solidarity MP explained that, in his view, the participation of opposition parties in the joint appearance had been agreed in advance. After representatives of Progressive Slovakia, the KDH and Demokrati failed to show up at the press conference, he claimed that some of them had been talked out of attending. The KDH and Demokrati rejected his version, speaking instead of a misunderstanding or late notification. SITA ↗

Hlina later admitted that he had raised his voice in an emotional situation. "I shouted a bit, I apologize," he said at an event at SNP Square in Bratislava. At the same event, representatives of all five opposition parties that had originally planned a joint approach ultimately addressed the public. .tyzden ↗

The dispute also continued in political discussions. Objections were raised both to Hlina's behavior and to the broader state of opposition cooperation. Richard Svoboda described the current situation as a destructive state of the opposition.

The opposition parties thus continued their joint public activities, but differing views on communication and organization remained a source of tension. Further cooperation will depend on whether they are able to resolve similar disputes without public conflicts. kultura.pravda.sk ↗
