  • Slovakia's coalition government will discuss retaliatory measures to take against Ukraine after it halted the flow of Russian gas through its territory to Slovakia, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said on Thursday.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has announced that Slovakia will discuss potential retaliatory measures following an incident where Ukraine allegedly sabotaged a gas transit pipeline, leading to a halt in Russian gas supplies to Slovakia. The incident involved a gas transit link between Ukraine and Slovakia, which was damaged, causing a disruption in gas flow. Fico emphasized the need for a thorough investigation into the sabotage, suggesting that such actions could have broader implications for European energy security. He also mentioned that Slovakia would consider its response carefully, given the country's reliance on Russian gas and the geopolitical tensions involving Ukraine and Russia. This situation adds another layer of complexity to the ongoing energy disputes in the region.
