According to the leader of Slovakia, he is a supporter of any form of ceasefire in the Russian-Ukrainian war.
Moreover, Fico proposes to extend the regime of silence between the countries after it ends on May 11, ignoring the fact that the Russian invaders did not observe it for a single minute.
The head of the Slovak government also called on Volodymyr Zelenskyy to call Vladimir Putin if he is really ready to meet with the dictator in any format, as previously stated.
“During our personal meeting in Armenia, he (Zelensky — ed.) told me that he is ready to meet with Putin in any format. The answer is obvious: if the President of Ukraine is interested in a meeting, he should contact his Russian counterpart by phone,” Fico said.
