“I will definitely not be there,” said Fico, quoted by the Pravda newspaper.

The politician added that he would not listen to someone who "lies daily".

According to Fico, what Zelensky says "damages the interests of Slovakia."

The parliamentarian recalled that proposals to suspend oil and gas supplies from Russia "cause serious damage" to the country.

Together with Fico, MP Ladislav Kamenitsky refused to attend the speech of the Ukrainian president, calling the event a "masquerade", the newspaper writes.

"Truth".

Earlier, the ex-president of Brazil, Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, called the behavior of the Ukrainian president “a little strange,” who “seems to be part of a performance” and speaks on television “morning, afternoon and night.”
