The chairman of the Slovak National Party (SNS) is facing accusations of hypocrisy after awarding a Danube River dredging contract to an Italian firm. This decision comes amidst a dispute with the Minister of the Environment and raises questions about the SNS leader’s motives. Sources suggest the dispute isn’t about environmental concerns, but rather about maintaining personal influence over contracts awarded to water management companies. Experts and fellow politician Danka have expressed surprise at the move. The situation indicates a potential power struggle within the government regarding lucrative public works projects along the Danube. This action appears to contradict previous stances taken by the SNS leader. The incident casts a shadow over the party’s public image and raises concerns about transparency in public procurement.
