Fico does not agree with Ukraine joining NATO: It is a step towards the third world war! – New time

The Smer-SD party is against Ukraine joining NATO. It was stated by its chairman Robert Fico. If the party were currently in government, the decision to join would be vetoed internationally. “As the chairman of Smer-SD, I will lead the members of the National Council of the Slovak Republic on behalf of this party, so that in the event of a vote on the approval of Ukraine’s accession to NATO, they will oppose it,” declared Fico. According to him, Ukraine’s entry into NATO is “a step towards the third world war”, which cannot be justified by the use of Russian military force in Ukraine. “It is a denial of all previous superpower agreements,” he declared. Ukraine filed a request for “accelerated” entry into the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) on Friday after Russian President Vladimir Putin signed treaties on the annexation of occupied Ukrainian regions to Russia.
