Opposition: Instead of Prosperity, Slovakia Runs Risk of Losing EU Funds

Bratislava, April 25 (TASR) - Instead of development and prosperity, Slovakia runs the risk of seeing its EU funds stopped over its dissolution of the rule of law, opposition MP Veronika Remisova ('Slovakia'-For the People-KU) declared at a press conference on Thursday. Remisova responded this way to Prime Minister Robert Fico's (Smer-SD) inspection visit to the Investments, Regional Development and Informatisation Ministry, headed by Richard Rasi (Voice-SD), earlier in the day. "Instead of development and prosperity, Slovakia runs the risk of being completely cut off from the EU money. Rasi, together with Robert Fico, have put us with their catastrophic decisions into a situation, in which Brussels might stop all of our EU funds and money from the Recovery Plan over the dissolution of the rule of law, and that money was supposed to go to schools, hospitals and new roads," warned Remisova. mf/mcs
