“The prime minister of Slovak Republic G. Fitzi spoke energy. We are ready to provide gas and oil to Slovakia – if it’s not Russia’s gas and not Russia’s oil. Because we have a war. This is the point,” Zelensky said.
He noted that Ukraine is now responding to Russian blows to energy facilities.
“And he’ll answer. But we want to end this war,” Zelensky said.
Hungary and Slovakia continue to receive Russian oil, in particular, through the Druzhba oil pipeline, where Ukraine has recently implemented a number of attacks. Slovakia, like Hungary, complained to the European Commission of these blows.
“A separate and important issue of European energy freedom. Russian oil, like Russian gas, has no future,” Zelensky said.
Introduction to the EU
According to Zelensky, Slovakia supports Ukraine in motion in the European Union.
“This is very significant. We also see both that Ukraine and Moldova should also come together in membership in the European Union. It is also important that bilateral cooperation with economic, energy and infrastructure issues here, in our region, strengthen our people, our countries,” Zelensky said. He also indicated the importance of continuing the dialogue in Slovakia.
“Membership in the European Union, of course, is associated with the complex process that needs to be passed. I have suggested to Mr. President the entire experience that the government has Slovak,” the prime minister said.
According to him, before the process of admission, Slovakia made “many deadly mistakes.”
“If we didn’t grant it, our situation in the European Union, perhaps, could be stronger than today,” Fitzo added.
Meeting Putin
Zelensky informed the Slovak prime minister about the US president Donald Trump yesterday about cooperating with the coalition leaders of the decisive approach to the world and ensuring the security of Ukraine, about the security architecture for Europe. According to him, Slovakia will not stand.
Fitz said his contacts with Vladimir Putin were connected to the hope of the rapid completion of Russia’s entire -scale raid against Ukraine.
“Again, there may be different views between us, but we believe that the war will end and end very fast, and that the relationship with the Russian Federation will be normalized. We just want to talk about the abilities and activities that we will face,” he said.
Slovak’s Prime Minister also called the information that the Kremlin owned the “some type of Ukraine’s energy blockade” with the Kremlin -owned.
“This is really not the subject of negotiations with Vladimir Putin. First of all who spoke about bilateral cooperation between Slovakia and the Russian Federation,” Fito added.
Zelensky has announced hope that Slovakia will participate in the provision of security guarantees in Ukraine. “We have discussed the topic of security guarantees for Ukraine, and it is good that Slovakia is ready to determine its position on this issue and open to dialogue with us,” he added.
