SNS Backs Opposition Agreement, Proposes Removing Interior Minister Taraba
Share:
The Slovak National Party (SNS), a junior partner in the ruling coalition, announced its support for an agreement with the opposition and accused Interior Minister Matúš Šutaj Eštok of the Hlas party of lying. SNS leader Andrej Danko said he would propose removing Taraba from his position. The development signals growing tensions within Slovakia's three-party ruling coalition, which consists of the dominant Smer-SD party led by Prime Minister Robert Fico, along with the centrist Hlas party and the nationalist SNS. Coalition disputes have become increasingly common as the government faces pressure over various domestic and international policy issues.
