Slovak PM Fico says some in West seek war between Russia and NATO

Fico said failed efforts to defeat Moscow in Ukraine are pushing some leaders toward a NATO-Russia conflict, as he warned of wider war.

  • On Saturday, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico accused some Western politicians of seeking conflict between NATO and Russia, claiming their strategy to defeat Moscow in Ukraine has "failed."
  • Longtime Slovak leader Fico maintains warm relations with Russia and refuses military aid for Ukraine, arguing Western support only "pour fuel on the fire" without achieving results.
  • "Certain war hawks within NATO are trying, at any cost, to turn this war into a conflict between Russia and NATO," Fico claimed, warning "we face a mortal danger."
  • Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk warned Thursday that Russia plans hybrid drone and missile attacks against countries supporting Ukraine, while French President Emmanuel Macron cited intensifying Russian aggression on Friday.
  • Earlier this week, Fico stated he wants to prevent Slovakia from becoming part of an armed conflict, reiterating that Slovakia will not send soldiers to fight even if a pretext arises.
