Sulik Happy Chiefly with Odor's Nomination as Caretaker Premier

Bratislava, May 10 (TASR) - Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) leader Richard Sulik said following his meeting with President Zuzana Caputova on Wednesday that he is happy with Slovakia's central bank (NBS) vice-governor Ludovit Odor's nomination as caretaker premier. Sulik didn't want to comment on names of new ministers, he only told his opinion to the head of the state. "The vast majority of them are solid nominations," noted Sulik. "If the president takes into account the conversation we had, what we said earlier will come true, and the caretaker government will be backed by SaS MPs," said Sulik. The SaS leader stated that it's not easy to find ministers in Slovakia. "If you don't go there just to steal, then it's hard work," he said. The party's teamleaders will comment on individual ministers only after the final list of caretaker cabinet is published. Sulik didn't know that Caputova didn't invite Smer-SD leader Robert Fico to the Presidential Palace on Wednesday. "I wouldn't invite him owing to his statements, either. Maybe it would be a good idea to pay a course in good manners for him. Anyway, it's the president's decision and I am taking due note of it," he said. The head of the state will also meet other party leaders on Wednesday. She should appoint a caretaker government next week. ko/mcs
