Slovakia reopens military channel for Moscow | Eastern Express

Slovakia is restoring military-diplomatic representation with Russia after a four-year interruption. We examine what Robert Fico’s government hopes to gain and why the reciprocal Russian posting has raised intelligence concerns. The decision also sits alongside plans to revive wider bilateral cooperation while NATO warns about Russian hybrid operations. Could this become a precedent for other allies, and what would Slovakia need to demonstrate to justify its choice? Former Slovakian Defense Minister Martin Sklenár joins Jonasz Rewiński in this episode of Eastern Express.
