Banner Comparing Slovak PM Fico to Hitler and Putin Appears in Košice After Moscow Visit

A banner featuring Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico alongside images of Adolf Hitler and Vladimir Putin was displayed in Košice following Fico's recent visit to Moscow. The protest banner was organized by Košický odboj, a local activist group. The demonstration reflects growing criticism of Fico's diplomatic engagement with Russia amid the ongoing war in Ukraine. Fico, who leads the ruling Smer-SD party, has faced opposition criticism for maintaining dialogue with Moscow while Slovakia remains a NATO and EU member state.
