The Slovak parliament did not condemn the Russian strike on the children’s hospital “Okhmatdyt” in Kyiv. The corresponding draft resolution was refused consideration.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine, citing Aktuality.sk.
Beata Jurik, a deputy from the opposition party Progressive Slovakia, proposed that the parliament consider a draft resolution condemning the Russian military’s airstrike on “Okhmatdyt.”
Subsequently, Pavol Gupčík, a deputy from the Slovak National Party, expressed doubt that a Russian missile had struck the hospital. “Were you there?” he asked his colleague Jurik.
As a result, Slovak deputies did not support including the initiative in the agenda, with only 41 parliamentarians voting in favor.
