Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defense Robert Kaliňák on Wednesday, after a government session, rejected criticism of the modifications made to the wall around the grounds of the former Hviezda dormitory in Bratislava, known as Kukurica. According to his statement, the changes are meant to discourage graffiti artists and serve to protect the premises. aktuality.sk ↗
Progressive Slovakia criticizes the wall modifications, speaking of fake or painted-on bricks. The party has announced it will file complaints, and in its criticism describes the work as shoddy. Kaliňák, on the other hand, claims that the goal was not an aesthetic upgrade for the public, but a practical measure against damage to the wall caused by graffiti artists. ta3.com ↗
The minister also responded to the opposition's objections regarding the Cyril and Methodius celebrations. The Government Office reported that the total costs paid to the external contractor reached nearly 252,000 euros excluding VAT. The opposition party SaS criticizes the celebrations for being held without the public and speaks of cronyism costing hundreds of thousands of euros. After the government session, Kaliňák emphasized that Slovakia is built on traditions and that it is the state's duty to celebrate them. SITA ↗
The supplied materials do not bring any new specific information about Michal Kaliňák. The dispute is thus focused mainly on Robert Kaliňák's statements and on two domestic topics: the wall modifications near Kukurica and the financing of the Cyril and Methodius celebrations. Further developments will depend on the opposition's announced complaints and on the possible disclosure of further details about the costs and implementation of the disputed measures. hnonline.sk ↗
