Russian President Vladimir Putin has endorsed Slovakia as a neutral venue for potential peace talks to resolve the Ukraine conflict. In a significant divergence from other EU nations, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico has maintained a stance against supplying arms to Ukraine, positioning Slovakia as a possible mediator. Meanwhile, Putin remains firm on the “territorial realities” that Ukraine must accept, including the loss of key regions. As the world speculates on the future of negotiations, can Slovakia bring both sides to the table, or is this move another strategic play by Moscow?
