Environment Minister Tomáš Taraba said he is not planning to leave office on September 15. He was responding to an SNS demand, according to which he should step down as head of the ministry, where the party nominated him, in mid-September. Refresher.sk ↗
The dispute between the minister and SNS escalated further after SNS parliamentary caucus chair Roman Michelko spoke about Taraba’s departure on the stated date. Taraba, however, rejected the demand and said that he is not ending on September 15. According to available information, no agreement has yet been reached between the minister and the party that nominated him to the government. zurnal.pravda.sk ↗
Kuffa also entered the dispute, calling Taraba a splitter of pro-national forces. The conflict is therefore no longer only a question of a personnel change in the government, but also of internal tension in the political environment around SNS. Taraba remains environment minister and publicly rejects the scenario of his departure in mid-September.
Further developments will depend on SNS’s position and on whether the party insists on the demand even after Taraba’s refusal. It is not yet clear whether the dispute will lead to talks on a change at the ministry or remain a political conflict without an immediate personnel consequence.
