BANSKA BYSTRICA, Slovakia—Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico remains in serious condition and still faces risks of complications but has stabilised, officials said on Saturday, following Wednesday’s assassination attempt.
The prime minister, 59, was shot at five times at point-blank range in an attack that sent shockwaves through Europe and raised concerns over the polarised state of politics in Slovakia, a central European country of 5.4 million people.
“We have not won yet, that is important to say,” Deputy Prime Minister Robert Kalinak said, giving an update on Mr. Fico’s condition in front of the hospital in the town of Banka Bystrica where the prime minister is being treated.
The Slovak Specialized Criminal Court ruled on Saturday that the suspect, identified by prosecutors as Juraj C., would remain in custody after being charged with attempted murder.
...
Mr. Fico underwent a two-hour operation on Friday that improved prospects for his recovery.
....
“In the initial hours, the prognosis was very, very bad, you know that shots into the abdomen are basically fatal, in this case [the doctors] managed to overturn this state and further stabilize the condition.”
Mr. Fico still faced a “big risk” of complications, Mr. Kalinak said. “The body’s reaction to a shooting wound is always very serious and brings [the risk of] a number of complications, which lasts for 4–5 days, which is today and tomorrow.”
He said it was unlikely Mr. Fico could be transferred to the capital, Bratislava, in coming days.
...
the suspect is a 71-year-old former security guard at a shopping mall and the author of three collections of poetry.
The court ruled he would remain in custody pending an investigation because of the risk of escape or criminal activity. The decision is subject to appeal.
Wait!
Is that *disinformation*?
Or *misinformation*?
Who’s the EU going to go after for posting that?
And why the threats?
BREAKING NEWS!!!
FRANCISCO FRANCO IS STILL DEAD!!!
DOCTORS SAY HIS CONDITION IS STABLE
“Malinformation.”
Information that is true, but undermines the official ministry of truth “narrative.”
He’s dead, Jim…
The EU will regard any speculation that the assassination attempt was encouraged by Ukraine in response to his opposition to Ukraine aid, to be unacceptable disinformation and wrong think
There’s a LOT of money involved in the Ukraine conflict
That has become obvious.
The love of money.......
Lord preserve him, I pray, in Jesus Name, amen.
Fico has a lot of almost bizarre stances, like going easier on corruption.
He also did a bit of a flip and dropped opposition to Slovakian manufacturers selling weapons to Ukraine. I’m betting “money talked” in that one, which makes the corruption “softness” even more, uh, interesting.
People in the US who think they understand Euro politics generally have a VERY shallow and / or incomplete take on them.
(I don’t claim expertise either [!], but am pretty good at spotting some of the occasional “oddities”.) :-)
Well, the globalists used him as an example for others that might falter in their loyalty to the New World Order.
