Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico sparked a political storm on Friday after telling high-school students in Poprad that if they supported Ukraine they should “go and fight,” prompting a walkout. The confrontation unfolded as Fico reaffirmed he would never back the European Union’s proposed €140 billion loan plan for Ukraine, calling it a continuation of the war. Students wearing black shirts and jingling keys in reference to the Velvet Revolution left the event in protest. Fico later said he rejected the idea of anyone taking up arms but accused the students of not tolerating different opinions. The EU proposal, backed by frozen Russian assets, has triggered legal and political concerns across the bloc. Brussels and Kyiv have not yet responded to Fico’s latest remarks. #slovakia #robertfico #ukrainewar #euupdate #europolitics #ukrainefunding #worldnews #nato #eunews #geopolitics #tnworld #timesnowworld #worldnews #internationalnews #timesnews #newsworld ​Subscribe now: http://bit.ly/3VHIl37 Times Now World is your definitive source for comprehensive global news and analysis.
