If at an extraordinary European summit is not respected that some countries have a different view of the continuation of the war in Ukraine, the European Council may not be able to agree on the conclusions of Ukraine on Thursday (6 March). In response to Friday (28th 2), the meeting of US President Donald Trump and the Ukrainian Head of Volodymyr Greenland, Prime Minister Robert Fico (Smer-SD) said it on the social network. He added that Slovakia has reservations and other requirements.
“The SR will not support Ukraine either financially or militarily to continue the war. If others do so, we will respect it. SR has reservations about the unrealistic strategy “Peace through Power”, which is to serve only as a reason for the continuation of the war in Ukraine. Ukraine will never be so strong that it can negotiate from the position of military force. The SR proposes to the conclusions of the EU summit, inter alia, the necessity of instant ceasefire (Regardless of the moment of reaching the final peace agreement), which is rejected by the President of the Greeding and large part of the EU Member States, “Fico wrote.
According to the Prime Minister, Slovakia will also ask for an explicit request to appear in the conclusions of the summit, To restore Ukraine to restore gas transit to Europe. According to him, the competitiveness of Europe cannot be ensured without Russian gas flowing through Ukraine. Fico stressed that Slovakia respects the need to increase Europe’s defenses.
On Friday, Greeding on Friday prematurely left negotiations with Trump, who wrote that the Ukrainian president is not ready for peace. This was preceded by a sharp exchange of views between the two leaders in the Oval Working of the White House.
