Slovakia Reports Major Losses from EU Fund Fraud and Tax Evasion

Slovakia is experiencing significant financial losses from fraud involving European Union funds, according to warnings issued by former Deputy Prime Minister Veronika Remišová. The country is also reporting substantial damage from tax and customs fraud. Remišová, who previously served as Deputy Prime Minister for Investments and Informatization in the government of Igor Matovič, has highlighted these systemic issues affecting public finances. EU funds are designed to support member states' development projects, but Slovakia appears to be struggling with oversight and prevention of fraudulent activities that divert these resources from their intended purposes.
