The President of the European Commission will come to Slovakia
Heger noted that he was in intensive contact with Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Šmyhaľ. According to him, Ukrainians are grateful for Slovak help and support. “We need to realize that Ukraine is defending itself today, defending itself and the freedom that has been severely disrupted by the Russian Federation and unfortunately affecting innocent civilians,” said Heger. He also thanked all Slovak citizens who help with the transport of Ukrainian mothers and women or at the borders.
“We continue to communicate with individual Member States regarding sanctions,” He stated that Slovakia has a clear position. “We want peace. Clearly, the country and the community of supporters of peace seem clear. That is why it urgently needs the necessary sanctions to show Vladimir Putin and the Russian Federation today, but for the future to whom anyone who attacks another democratic country and whenever in a military way waiting, ” Heger explained. He noted the need to send a clear signal that we want peace and not war.
According to the prime minister, people other than Ukrainians are also fleeing the war. He claims that people from other countries are also coming to return home from Ukraine. “We provide transportation for these people to the nearest information so that they can be transported to the destinations they come from,” he added.
The premiere begs people not to panic. “No one can say what Vladimir Putin is capable of, but we are part of the North Atlantic Alliance and the European Union. Today, Slovakia is not looking at the country, but at the whole. We are the strongest alliance in the world that is here. This is a force. , ” declared. He stressed that the priority for Slovakia is to provide the border and provide humanitarian aid.
Heger does not yet register citizens’ requests for an option for Ukraine. The topic of a change in legislation that could be a volunteer from Slovakia is therefore not on the table. “At the moment, there is no such request from Ukraine either,” pointed out.
