The bishop made an unexpected confession for tvnoviny.skwho conducted a survey on this issue in the corridors. “I must have been abroad,” said the MEP first, who was asked if he had registered for eHranice. “Well, I guess not.” Viskupič answered the question of whether he enrolled in the system. In an instant, all his attention was turned to him.

He pours ashes on his head and is ready for sanctions

Registration in eHranice is mandatory for all Slovaks during a pandemic, and in the case of unvaccinated people, it is an even greater offense. The head of the committee, as it turned out, is not vaccinated. “I admit and confirm that I have actually been to the Czech Republic three times. In my case, these were trips to my mother,” admitted the MP for SaS.

“It was about 30 kilometers from the border in Moravia, it was always only for a few hours and I always came back that day,” Viskupič continues to confess. “I have to say that I probably underestimated it. I didn’t sign up for eHranice, I didn’t quarantine, it’s my fault. If the Public Health Office sends me a fine, I have no choice but to pay it. I didn’t follow the rules.” he pours ashes on the head of the committee.

I won’t tell him what to do, says Kollár

“It’s a violation and he should stand up to it as a guy and say ‘sorry’ or get a fine. Mr. said Speaker of Parliament Boris Kollár (We are a family) in response to the events surrounding the head of the committee.

Let him get the punishment nicely, says Sulík

After such a transgression, his party boss Richard Sulík (SaS) would take a similar position as Viskupič. “He broke the rules. Fall to whom you fall. If there is a threat of punishment, let him receive that punishment,” the Minister of Economy speaks of his own deputy.

The opposition is tougher

As is often the case in such cases, the opposition, specifically the non-parliamentary Voice-SD, led by Peter Pellegrini, has also caught on in this case. The former prime minister calls him to personal responsibility. “After all, we must fully abide by the rules if we want people to abide by them. In this case, Mr Viskupič acted the exact opposite. He should really consider whether, at least as a gesture, he should not end up as the head of the committee and remain just a member of parliament.” told reporters Pellegrini.

He admitted the mistake, interrupts the visits for now

According to his own words, the bishop admitted the mistake and is ready to bear the consequences. “That error means a fine under the applicable rules, and I consider this to be a sufficient inference of liability,” Viskupič concluded, while his party boss also stood up for him. However, the bishop cancels these foreign trips for the given situation. “At the moment, I probably won’t go to see my mother anymore, because, let’s face it, I can’t imagine being in quarantine for 5 days for a few hours visit.” Viskupič finished.
