Slovak Government Funded Pro-Russian Website Linked to Kremlin Spy
Share:
The Slovak government has provided funding to a pro-Russian website whose correspondent was involved in espionage activities for the Kremlin. Deputy Prime Minister Robert Kaliňák's office transferred thousands of euros to the outlet Hlavné správy (Main News). The website also received a grant from the Government Office, officially designated for "premises reconstruction" according to the contract. This funding arrangement raises questions about the government's financial support for media outlets with demonstrated ties to Russian intelligence operations.
