Details: Fico said on Facebook that the war started in 2014 because “Ukrainian neo-Nazis” were “rampant”.
He said that the Russian Federation’s military invasion of Ukraine is also partly serving to “mislead Russia into thinking that NATO will not expand further east”.
Fico described Ukraine’s possible NATO membership as an impetus for “the beginning of World War Three”.
Still, Fico admitted that the invasion of Ukraine is a violation of international law.
