President of the Slovak Republic Peter Pellegrini will in the coming days call on both coalition and opposition parties to commit, through a signature, to continuing the construction of strategic hospitals even after the 2027 parliamentary elections. The head of state emphasizes that this key strategic investment must continue independently of the composition of the future government. Pellegrini wants to use formal commitments to prevent a situation like that represented by unfinished construction projects such as Rázsochy. ta3.com ↗ interez.sk ↗
The coalition party Smer-SD declares its support for the completion of the hospitals and announces that it will continue with it even if it participates in government after the 2027 elections. Liberal MEP Richard Dvořák responded to the president's call with caution, stating that completing the hospitals is clearly a priority, but he is not sure whether it is also a priority for the government. hnonline.sk ↗ hlavnespravy.sk ↗
However, the coalition Slovak National Party criticizes the president's move. According to the SNS, Pellegrini, as head of state, bears the greatest responsibility for the state of Slovak healthcare. The party demands that the president first explain to citizens the so-called ambulance tender, which it criticizes. This stance by the SNS signals internal discord within the coalition regarding the healthcare system and investments in hospital infrastructure. Pellegrini believes that when it comes to such a strategic investment, political parties will have no problem formally expressing their commitment through a signature as well. hnonline.sk ↗ pravda.sk ↗
