Attempt on Fico’s life was attempt to turn Slovaks into ‘slaves of the United States’ – former lawmaker

It’s “very difficult” to say what forces are behind the attempt on Robert Fico’s life, since, together with Viktor Orban of Hungary, the two men are “the only two prime ministers who are opposed to what is happening in the European Union, and opposed to the fact that the rights of all the states that have joined the EU have been limited,” former Slovak lawmaker Peter Marcek told Sputnik.

“These two prime ministers are very dangerous for the European Union. And in Slovakia, after the recent elections, 60-70 percent of people are in favor of good relations with Russia,” Marcek, the chairman of the Slavic Unity party, stressed.

“It’s hard to say who’s behind this. But we know that the opposition is very aggressive,” the politician noted, pointing out that there are opposition forces in Slovakia today that seem dedicated purely to defending the interests of the United States, rather than ordinary Slovaks.

On top of that are “all these non-governmental organizations headed by George Soros. We can only guess who it might be – MI6, the CIA, or someone from Ukraine. Many are interested in Fico being out of the picture, in seeing him murdered. In my opinion, the Anglo-Saxons are 100% responsible for all this.

The people behind this want Slovakia and the Slovak people to be scared, for the Slovak government and politicians to be scared. This is very dangerous for Slovakia, because we will not simply leave Fico. And this could lead to bloodshed in Slovakia,” Marcek said, warning that efforts to turn Slovaks into “slaves of the United States” through violence could spark “a civil war.”
