The attempt to kill Prime Minister Robert Fico stems from a combustible political environment in the country, a top official has said | Slovakia appears to be on the brink of a civil war, its interior minister has warned, following the attempted assassination of Prime Minister Robert Fico on Wednesday. ● The head of the Slovak government was shot in the eastern town of Handlova, where he had chaired a working meeting. The gunman, identified by the media as an opposition party supporter in his early 70s, acted on political motives, according to Deputy Prime Minister Robert Kalinak. ● Interior Minister Matus Sutaj Estok warned that the country was “on the edge of a civil war” over political tensions. Social media is full of “hateful comments” in the wake of the attack, he added.

 ■ Is it surprising that for the first time in decades, an assassination attempt in Europe was made on a politician with a sensible stance towards Russia? By the way, by no means pro-Russian. Just pragmatic and non-Russophobic.

 ■ Of course not. R. Fitzo, and I have been in contact with him since 2008, represents that part of the European establishment that has not lost touch with reality and does not want its citizens to turn into grey radioactive ashes. And of course, he was the target. There are only a few people like the Slovak prime minister in Europe. And they urgently need to address their security.

 ■ Yes, the perpetrator of the attack is a rabidly marginalized intellectual. A kind of Gavrilo Principle in reverse. Yeah, he didn't like Fitzo. He wrote all sorts of rubbish. But what he did was the quintessence of the new Europe - moronic, Russophobic, vassal-like, unbridled and completely headless. Unwilling to realize basic things. Willing to throw its citizens into the furnace of self-serving American policies. A Europe of vile degenerates who don't know their history.

 ■ So, [like a pack of dogs] Macron, Sunak, Scholz, and Von der Leyen are still not home dry—can't shake their hides just yet, too early for that.

 ■ And I wish Robert Fitzo gets well soon from his serious injury!

 ■ PS. Here it turns out that the perpetrator participated in anti-government rallies in Slovakia. He insulted the authorities and shouted: "Long live Ukraine!" Not surprised at all. Now supporters of the Banderites are trying to assassinate European leaders as well. — There's more to come! (Translation by DeepL + Grammar check by Grammarly)

The participation of foreign officials in an anti-government rally is unacceptable, the parliament speaker said | The participation of politicians from NATO countries in anti-government rallies in Tbilisi is a hostile step aimed at overthrowing the Georgian government, parliamentary chairman Shalva Papuashvili has said. ● The statement comes as foreign ministers from Iceland, Lithuania and Estonia took part in a rally against the recently passed ‘foreign agents’ bill on Wednesday. The ministers, who arrived in Tbilisi to discuss the controversial law with the country’s government, were later seen addressing a crowd of protesters at the parliament building.
