“We want to ask that they do not discuss sanctions now, but first this topic,” said the premiere of Slovakia.
He noted that Bratislava wants to know what will guarantee the presence of sufficient gas reserves and the absence of rapid increase in price for households.
“Slovakia has no reason to suffer through Ukraine,” Fitzo said.
As reported by “European Truth”, on June 10, the European Commission presented the 18th package of sanctions against Russia.
Subsequently, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fitzo said he would not support the 18th EU sanctions against the Russian Federation, “if the European Commission does not propose a real solution to the crisis situation in which Slovakia will find himself after the complete cessation of gas, oil and nuclear fuel supplies from Russia.”
It should be noted that this is not the first time Fitzo threatens to block any sanctions that the EU will impose against Russia.
