“Slovakia will not support the 18th package of EU sanctions against Russia, if the European Commission does not propose to solve the problems of energy supply of the country, Prime Minister Robert Fitzo said. “Slovakia will not support the proposed 18th package of sanctions against Russia, if the European Commission does not give it a real solution to the crisis situation in which Slovakia will find herself after the complete cessation of supply of gas, oil and nuclear fuel from Russia,” Fitzo wrote on Facebook late in Tuesday night. The EU appeals to the Member States, “listening to anxiety,”-said the European Commission spokeswoman Paul Pinju in response to a request for Fitzo’s statement to reporters. The unanimous approval of the package “remains our goal”, said Piny. EU countries will start debb on this week’s sanction proposals that require unanimity in the block to approve them.
