Opposition Leader Criticizes Prime Minister's Silence on Cross-Border Drone Incidents

Opposition leader Michal Šimečka has criticized Prime Minister Robert Fico for remaining silent while drones are falling across Slovakia's borders. Šimečka, who leads the liberal Progressive Slovakia party and serves as the main opposition voice in the National Council, Slovakia's parliament, called on Fico to defend Slovakia's interests and ensure citizen safety. The criticism comes amid growing concerns about aerial incidents near Slovakia's borders, though the specific nature and origin of the drone incidents were not detailed. Šimečka's statement reflects ongoing tensions between the opposition and Fico's ruling Smer-SD government over national security issues and the prime minister's response to regional developments.
