Those with sound minds must unite against “collective madness” in the EU, the deputy head of Slovakia’s ruling Smer party has said
Bratislava could support Budapest’s idea to form an anti-Ukraine bloc within the EU, Lubos Blaha, the deputy leader of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico’s Smer Party, has said.
Earlier this week, a senior political adviser to Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban suggested that Hungary, Slovakia, and the Czech Republic could team up to align their stances ahead of European Council meetings. A “Ukraine-skeptic” alliance in the EU “will come – and be more and more visible,” Balazs Orban, told Politico.
Unlike most other EU nations, Hungary and Slovakia refused to send military aid to Kiev, instead calling for a peaceful resolution to the Ukraine conflict and maintaining ties with Russia. A similar stance had been voiced by Andrej Babis, whose ANO party won the Czech parliamentary election last month.
Blaha told Izvestia on Saturday, that “joint actions by those who still have a sound mind in Europe are not only possible, but also probable. Despite the fact that Europe is once again… gripped by a collective madness that is leading us all to war, decline and chaos.”
