  1. Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico vowed on Sunday to block Ukraine from joining NATO for as long as he is head of the country’s government.

    NATO’s leadership wants Ukraine to join the military alliance after its war with Russia ends in order to deter further aggression from Moscow, but Fico’s declaration highlights the political difficulties that are likely to arise in pursuing that aim.

    “As long as I am head of the Slovak government, I will direct the MPs that are under my control as chairman of the [ruling Smer] party never to agree to Ukraine’s joining NATO,” he said on the weekly “O päť minút dvanásť” (5 Minutes to 12) program.

  2. And butter in Slovakia costs 4,39 EUR nowadays!

    That government is doing *great* with both national and international policing. /s

  3. “NATO’s leadership want Ukraine to join the military alliance”
    Yeah, right… More like “NATO’s leadership gives Ukraine empty promises”

  4. Who cares?

    Ukraine can’t join because of the US and Germany, not because of Fico.

    If there’s an agreement from major players – the opinion of this crap is irrelevant.

    IF there’s no agreement from major players – the opinion of this crap is irrelevant too.

    It’s irrelevant in any case.

  5. He’s always bigmouth on home stage, then (thank god!) a coward to stand by his words when comes to the action…and hopefully, that spineless pig will be out of office within 3 years🙏

  6. When US decides Ukraine is ready to join they will convince countries like Slovakia to change their stance. Until then they can talk whatever they want. 

  7. yes, well, few things for him

    1. nobody was asking a pathetic subhuman piece of corrupt trash for an opinion
    2. they will join AFTER his term is up anyway, nobody was really forcing the issue in the first place
    3. the most useful thing he can do… is plant a tree, dig a hole next to it, and die in it – to provide nutrients to the tree, as it replaces the oxygen he wasted, so at least a small part of his net negative value to humanity is recouped

  8. he can say whatever he wants in the end time will tell and Ukraine has the means in the most critical to just makes nukes and that will be 100% guarantee for them

  9. I mean yea, we have no idea if Ukraine will even have the option to do so by the time the war is over

    Can’t be certain on too much yet, we can only hope

  10. Oh yeah, let one of the worlds most corrupt countries, who blew up nord stream and tried to cover it up join EU and NATO. No matter what this guys says, it will never happen.

  11. imagine being openly hostile to a neutral country. It isn’t a big surprise why someone took a shot at that maggot.

  12. So tired of these rent-a-stooges popping up in our organisations with no means to boot them out

  13. How deep is Putin up his ass for him to say that?

    Although to be fair you do sometimes see people calling for Ukraine to be allowed to join NATO rn which is just completely unrealistic and frankly insane Imo.

    Ofc once they are not in an active war with Russia it’ll be a whole different situation but while they are still fighting it that would be disastrous and would absolutely trigger WWIII and would almost certainly cause Putin to use his last resort which are nukes.

    Until the war is over the best that can realistically be done is supply Ukraine with as much equipment and possibly training as possible with promises of being allowed to join after peace has been achieved. Although even that could be risky as the intense destruction of Ukraine (in terms of buildings, the economy and the people) could lead to the country being very unstable in the years following peace even if they do win and lose no land so an immediate entry into NATO could cause issues if the democratic government was to fall in the chaos.

    But outright refusing Ukraine to ever join makes them so clearly Putin’s little bitch and they shouldn’t be trusted on any matter of national security.

  14. That stupid clown is on the end of his career.. he ruled over 1000 years with his lullaby lies but everyone knows that he’s just full of shit.
    This is his last 3 years of service.

    His death will be in agony and misery because he is not a good person.

    Fuck this guy!

  15. Good thing that:
    1. This idiot hopefully won’t be there for much longer
    2. Nobody asked him
