Rome, Dec. 27 (LaPresse) – By halting the transit of Russian gas, "President Zelensky will cause billions of damages to the EU, including Slovakia, and further reduce the EU's competitiveness, but the EU’s major players don't seem to care," wrote Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico on social media, announcing potential retaliatory measures.
The Slovak government, Fico stated, "will evaluate the situation and consider reciprocal measures against Ukraine" and, "if necessary," "will halt the supply of electricity, which Ukraine urgently needs, or agree on another course of action."
In recent days, Fico discussed the issue at the Kremlin with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
