Vice Speaker of the Slovak Parliament: Russia defends its interests in Ukraine. Andrei Danko said this on Slovak Radio.

Earlier, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said he was shocked by the words of British Ambassador Nigel Baker, who criticized the government's position in relation to the Ukrainian conflict. He added that “everyone bears responsibility” for the conflict in Ukraine, including the Ukrainians, who did not provide an equal approach to the Russian-speaking part of the population.
