Fico: Meeting with Hungarian Premier Orban Friendly and Spontaneous

Bratislava, January 21 (TASR) - Spontaneous, friendly and content-rich, such was according to Prime Minister Robert Fico (Smer-SD) his Tuesday meeting with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban in Bratislava. Fico invited Orban to an official visit of Slovakia on March 19, so as to commemorate the 30th anniversary of The Agreement on Good Neighbourly Ties and Friendly Cooperation Between the Slovak Republic and Hungary. "I'm glad that the quality of Slovak-Hungarian ties is at the highest level possible and that the Hungarian-Slovak cohabitation is no longer a political issue. We find common ground in our shared opinions not only on developments in our countries but also in the international arena," stated Fico. "We discussed the current situation in the European Union and first steps of new US President Donald Trump," claimed Fico, adding that he shares many similar views with Trump on issues such as migration and family. Fico informed Orban about current activities of Slovak opposition and claimed that it is preparing for a 'Maidan' revolution in Slovakia, with plans to occupy government buildings and coordinate its activities with entities abroad. "Even here, at this meeting, I underline that EU and NATO remains our living space, but we have a right to be critical," said Fico, adding that both Bratislava and Budapest are aware of their responsibility to prepare their countries for various scenarios that might occur in the EU. Fico apprised Orban of his plan to anchor in the Slovak Constitution that only two genders exist: man and woman. mf
