Ruling Smer Party Blames Opposition for Current Economic Problems
Share:
Slovakia's ruling Smer-SD party has rejected criticism from the opposition and instead blamed opposition parties for the country's current economic difficulties. The social-democratic party, which leads Slovakia's governing coalition, specifically dismissed critiques from the liberal Freedom and Solidarity (SaS) party regarding economic management. Smer-SD has been in power since 2023 under Prime Minister Robert Fico, while SaS served in the previous government coalition from 2020-2023 and is now part of the parliamentary opposition alongside other center-right parties.
