Putin instructed: Zelensky harshly responded to Fico's blackmail.

Zelensky reacts to Slovakia's threats regarding electricity supplies

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky responded to the threats from Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico regarding the cessation of electricity supplies to Ukraine. In his Telegram channel, he stated that Fico likely received instructions from Russian President Putin, who is currently opposing Ukraine. Zelensky also noted the unfairness of such support for Russian aggression and that Fico's policies have left the Slovak people without compensation for the loss of Russian gas transit. He added that cooperation with European partners to ensure electricity supplies is beneficial for everyone and will help reduce energy prices.

Zelensky emphasized that thanks to cooperation with the EU, the USA, the UK, Norway, Japan, and other partners, it has been possible to avoid an energy crisis in Ukraine. He also noted that the Ukrainian government is doing everything possible to maintain electricity supply levels. Zelensky urged Fico to respect European rules and warned about the potential rupture of Slovakia's relations with the European Union.
