Bratislava is not Moscow: Zelensky responded to protests in Slovakia.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky supported the mass protests in Slovakia against Prime Minister Robert Fico's policies aimed at getting closer to Russia.

On January 24, demonstrations with the slogan 'Slovakia is Europe' took place in more than 20 cities across Slovakia. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky posted on his Twitter: 'Bratislava nie je Moskva. Slovensko je Európa'.

Prime Minister Robert Fico faces accusations that the opposition, non-governmental organizations, media, and a 'secret group of experts' from abroad are preparing a 'coup'.

The opposition forces in Slovakia, who are calling for a vote of no confidence in Fico's government, categorically deny these accusations, considering them an attempt to pressure citizens.
