Share:
Former Slovak police chief Tibor Gašpar has warned that the country could experience another politically motivated assassination attempt due to the current tense political atmosphere. Gašpar called for de-escalation of tensions in Slovak politics. Slovakia has been grappling with heightened political polarization in recent years, particularly following the 2022 parliamentary elections that brought Robert Fico's Smer-SD party back to power. The warning comes amid ongoing disputes between the ruling coalition and opposition parties over various policy issues and investigations.
