Slovak Interior Minister Robert Kaliňák has sparked controversy by seemingly downplaying the recent heatwave’s impact, stating he also felt warm and is not upset. This comment comes as healthcare workers and patients grapple with heat-related illnesses. The statement is widely viewed as a display of arrogance, particularly given the strain on the healthcare system. Reports also suggest Prime Minister Robert Fico is working to protect the Slovalco company, citing unspecified reasons. Further complicating the political landscape are alleged covert operations against Milan Rastislav Štefánik, along with connections between Kaliňák, Fico, and influential figures. These developments raise questions about transparency and priorities within the current Slovak government.
