"I will say this out loud for the first time: … we need to replace the EU's high representative for foreign affairs policy, Ms. Kallas," Fico told Slovak news channel TA3.
He argued that the bloc was too passive and criticized the EU leaders for failing to come up with their own solutions. The EU has nothing to offer but hatred toward Russia, he added.
Fico also said that the EU could not agree on collective defense without looking to the United States. He criticized the United Kingdom and France for trying to provoke Russia into an armed conflict by announcing plans to send their soldiers to Ukraine.
