Majority of Slovaks Call for Parliamentary Speaker Gašpar to Resign, Poll Shows

Growing public pressure is mounting on parliamentary speaker Peter Gašpar to step down from his leadership position, according to a new opinion poll conducted by Ipsos agency for Denník N newspaper. The survey reveals that a majority of the Slovak public supports Gašpar's departure, with calls for his resignation extending even to a portion of voters from his own party, Smer-SD. Smer-SD is Slovakia's ruling social-democratic party, which leads the current government coalition. The poll results indicate declining confidence in Gašpar's leadership of the National Council, Slovakia's parliament, suggesting potential political challenges ahead for the ruling party as public opinion turns against one of its key figures.
