Slovakian Prime Minister’s warning about severe consequences of Russian gas cut
The Prime Minister of Slovakia, expressing his concern about the interruption of Russian gas supply to Europe from Ukraine, warned that this event will cause severe damage to the countries of this continent.
According to Isna, the Prime Minister of Slovakia, Robert Fitzow, in his speech on the occasion of the New Year on Wednesday, expressed deep concern about the interruption of Russian gas transit through Ukraine to Europe and emphasized that this event will have severe consequences for Slovakia. And the whole of the European Union will.
According to “Rasha Today”, following its decision not to renew the agreement with Russia’s Gazprom on gas transit from Russia to Europe, Ukraine has cut off this transit from today, January 1, 2025.
In his speech, the video of which was published on Wednesday, Fitsu criticized the dominance of “selfish national interests” and “stupid geopolitical goals” within the framework of the European Union, saying that in this situation the needs of smaller countries like Slovakia are being ignored.
Fitso emphasized: “In world politics, it doesn’t matter whether big countries are friends or fight each other, in the end small countries always suffer. I don’t want Slovakia to get into a painful situation as we are witnessing today with the cut off gas transit from Ukraine. “This will have a detrimental effect on all of us in the European Union, but it will not affect the Russian Federation.”
In this speech, he also pledged to adopt a foreign policy with global interaction in 2025, focusing on “non-interference in other people’s internal affairs” and prioritizing Slovakia’s national interests.
Slovakia, among the recipients of Russian gas in Europe, has passed through the Ukrainian territory through the pipeline, and was surprised by the recent decision of Kiev to cut gas transit and asked Ukraine to extend the agreement with Gazprom. In response to Kiev’s opposition to his country’s request, Fitso threatened to cut off electricity supply to Ukraine a few days ago.
