"We must ..."
Fico cast his vote for EU elections in hospital
More than four weeks after an attack on him, Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico has cast his vote for the European elections in hospital. He voted in hospital because this election is important, Fico wrote on Facebook on Saturday.
The 59-year-old also posted a photo of himself leaning on a crutch and inserting his ballot paper into a mobile ballot box.
"We must elect MPs who support peace initiatives and not the continuation of war," the left-wing populist added with a view to Ukraine. After he took office in October, Slovakia halted state arms deliveries to Ukraine, which had been attacked by Russia.
Life-threatening injury
Fico was critically injured by several shots fired by an opponent of the government in the small town of Handlova on May 15. The attacker, who was arrested immediately after the attack, is currently in custody. During police questioning, the 71-year-old justified his attack with hatred of Fico and his government policy.
