FIRST REACTIONS to the president’s report: According to Kollár, everyone should take her words to heart – Topky.sk

SaS speaks of a balanced message

According to the SaS, the report conveyed by President Čaputová was balanced. “However, it has set up a critical mirror not only for the government but also for the deputies,” says Anna Zemanová, chairwoman of the SaS parliamentary group. She also appreciated that the president also touched on the environment and biodiversity.

The president fully supported the government, Fico said

The opposition leader of Smer-SD, Robert Fico, also reacted to the report. According to him, Čaputová fully supported the government coalition, because she allegedly did not mention who is responsible for Slovakia’s last worst results even in the event of a pandemic, by which he meant the current Heger government. Fico is also hindered that the president is said to have completely bypassed the issue of the state of public finances, which is allegedly not pointed out by Smer, but by other, independent institutions. “The president did not say anything, the president is a member of the governing coalition,” concluded Fico.

Big day! The President addressed the deputies and the nation: Vulgarisms have become a new standard, we must unite!

Krajniak praised Čaputová’s support for unvaccinated people

One of the first to respond to the words of the head of state was Labor Minister Milan Krajniak (We Are Family), who appreciates the president’s understanding for people who do not want to be vaccinated. “I don’t think unvaccinated people should be second-class citizens, and vaccination shouldn’t be mandatory.” says the minister.

Kollár drew attention to the coalition agreement

Almost immediately after being escorted by the head of state from the plenary, the speaker met with several journalists, to whom he told that he too “brought his ears” and listened carefully to the head of state on the bench. Immediately after her speech, however, he returned to the subject of his affairs, which he included in the coalition agreement. He came across rental apartments, 363 or an execution amnesia. At the same time, he does not think that the current political culture is on the day as described by the president and that it has been “worse” here, but he added with one breath that we are not at the level of Germany or France. “Everyone should enter their conscience, me too,” Kollár acknowledged.

Pellegrini spoke of vaccinated people

As a still unvaccinated politician, Peter Pellegrini also took away from Čaput’s speech that people who were vaccinated and unvaccinated should not fight among themselves for various reasons.
