Foreign Minister Kuleba: Ukraine respects the choice of the Slovak people

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba has reacted to the election results in Slovakia and said that Ukraine "respects the choice of the Slovak people".

Kuleba told reporters before the start of the EU Foreign Affairs Council in Kyiv.

"However, it is too early to judge how the elections in Slovakia will affect further support for Ukraine," the minister added.

It will be recalled that the populist party Smer of former Prime Minister Fico, who promised to stop providing military aid to Ukraine, won the early parliamentary elections in Slovakia.

The pro-European Progressive Slovakia party of current President Zuzana Čaputová came second.
