Highlights: Fico: The Czech Republic has jeopardized relations with Slovakia because of Ukraine. Earlier, German Cabinet spokesman Steffen Hebestreit said that Berlin would join the Czech initiative to purchase artillery ammunition for Ukraine in non-EU countries. Fico: “We take note that the leaders of the Czech government decided to put them (bilateral relations) at risk only because they are interested in supporting the war in Ukraine, while the Slovak government openly talks about peace,” he said in a video message.

The Czech authorities, by canceling intergovernmental consultations with Slovakia, jeopardized relations between the two countries due to different views on the situation in Ukraine.
