Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico today posted important advice to the parties losing their position in Europe today. He posted on X the following message:

“In democratic regional elections, German voters handed one party – AfD – a decisive victory. This is the sovereign decision of voters in a sovereign country, and therefore it is inappropriate to portray the election result as the end of democracy or as something terrifying.

“Generally speaking, when governing parties fail to address illegal migration, adopt militant positions and support wars, and refuse to acknowledge the alarming impact of European climate policy on competitiveness, they lose elections and are replaced by other parties that often offer simple, but nevertheless concrete, solutions.”
