Putin, Slovak Premier Discuss Ukraine Conflict
(MENAFN) Russian President Vladimir Putin held talks with Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico in China on Tuesday, focusing on the ongoing war in Ukraine, energy collaboration, and the strengthening of bilateral ties, as reported by Russian media.
During his four-day visit to China, scheduled from August 31 to September 3, Putin attributed the Ukraine crisis to what he described as a Western-supported coup in Kyiv.
He emphasized that Moscow was “forced to protect people who linked their fate with Russia.”
Putin dismissed allegations that Russia plans to launch attacks on Europe, labeling such claims as Western “hysteria.”
He noted that Russia had endured Ukrainian attacks on its energy infrastructure for an extended period before ultimately responding with military force.

Addressing Fico directly, Putin praised Slovakia’s independent foreign policy and the positive economic outcomes it has generated.
