Opposition party moves to dismiss Slovak Defense Minister over hospital project failures
Share:
The opposition Christian Democratic Movement (KDH) has submitted a proposal to remove Defense Minister Robert Kaliňák from office, citing failures in the construction of a hospital in Prešov. KDH, which sits in opposition to Slovakia's ruling coalition, is launching the dismissal attempt over what it describes as significant problems with the hospital construction project. An extraordinary parliamentary session to debate the motion is expected to take place within a week. The proposal represents the latest challenge to Kaliňák, who has served as defense minister in the current government led by Prime Minister Robert Fico's Smer-SD party.
