Slovak Opposition Moves to Remove Former Police Chief from Parliamentary Leadership Role

Opposition parties in Slovakia have submitted a proposal to remove Tibor Gašpar from his position as deputy speaker of parliament. The opposition argues that Gašpar could abuse his parliamentary position to exert influence or create pressure on others. Gašpar, a former police chief, currently serves as one of the vice-presidents of the National Council, Slovakia's parliament. The move reflects ongoing tensions between the ruling coalition and opposition parties over appointments to key institutional positions, particularly involving figures from law enforcement backgrounds who held senior roles under previous governments.
