Pico talked about the "shocking" conversation with Koretsky and refused to finance Ukraine.
Pico said this on Tuesday, November 10, at a press conference in Bratislava.
Pico mentioned that a few days ago the governments of Ukraine and Slovakia held joint consultations. According to him, during this he had a private conversation with the Prime Minister of Ukraine, which shocked him:
"I don't have the right to reveal details behind the scenes and I never do that, but I had a private conversation with the Prime Minister of Ukraine, and I was shocked by that conversation. Really shocked, regarding the war and the further development of events in the future. I won't say more and I can't say anything more, because I have to respect that."
Pico responded to the position of German Chancellor Friedrich March, who wants to involve all EU countries in financing Ukraine next year and beyond:
"On behalf of the government of the Slovak Republic, I am informing Mr. Merz from here in Slovakia: Slovakia will not participate in another loan of 70 billion to Ukraine, period. we are done And what will happen next, I don't know. This is complete nonsense, this whole war is complete nonsense. It is the killing of people, which benefits someone. For that I am rejecting the money. ".
According to him, if the chancellor comes and says that he will block the EU budget until all countries agree on a new loan to Ukraine, Slovakia will veto this decision.
