Fico's plans to visit Moscow
Recently, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico emphasized the role of the Red Army in defeating Nazi Germany during World War II.
Against this backdrop, he announced his intention to travel to Moscow on May 9, 2025.
In response to these plans, Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesperson Heorhii Tykhyi suggested that Fico visit Kherson, Zaporizhzhia, and Kharkiv, areas that were affected by the Second World War.
