Dubai and other cities, along with US bases in the Persian Gulf, have been the targets of Iran’s retaliatory attacks since Saturday, February 28. The conflict in the Middle East has thus complicated the situation of hundreds of thousands of people around the world. Airspace and airports connecting Europe and Asia were closed for flying missiles and drones in the countries of the Persian Gulf.
On Monday, March 2, the Ministry of Foreign and European Affairs (MZVEZ) of the Slovak Republic registered approximately 5,000 citizens of Slovakia in the region, who registered on the website in connection with a request for assistance. All of them are interested in returning to Slovakia. According to the head of the department, Juraj Blanár, transportation of all is not possible due to capacity reasons. According to him, repatriation flights will primarily be aimed at mothers with children or sick people.
Prime Minister Robert Fico (on March 4) he said that he would not allow Slovakia to be drawn into any military conflict and he repeated his claims that the opposition wanted war.
“She is excited that the spiritual leader in Iran was killed, I say that it was a gross violation of international law, that it was an extrajudicial execution. For us, the most important thing is that there should be peace. The opposition has a completely different opinion on this, as it supports all military adventures,” announced the Prime Minister.
“Notice it. He is sitting in a Bratislava cafe, he is wise and the war… Let him go, of course everything is fine in Iran a then he goes to Dubai on vacation, there a fighter jet flies over his head and he is fucked. And suddenly he just writes when you will come to pick me up by plane and I want to go home quickly.” added Fico.
Slovak politician Vladimíra Marcinková shared Prime Minister Fico’s sharp statement on the social networkwho has been working as a member of the National Council of the Slovak Republic since 2020. At the same time, she holds the position of vice-chairwoman of the Committee for European Affairs in the parliament. She is a member of the parliamentary club of the Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) party.
The Prime Minister’s words completely shocked her. She shared a clear opinion about his expression with her followers. “Can the Prime Minister speak like this about the citizens of Slovakia? Unbelievable,” she wrote bluntly on Instagram. You can find a PHOTO post in the gallery.
