Peter Pellegrini: Russia-friendly populist elected Slovak president

Populist Peter Pellegrini has been elected president of Slovakia, succeeding the liberal Zuzana Caputova.

Mr Pellegrini, 48, defeated the pro-Western Ivan Korčok, a former diplomat, with 53% of the vote.

A former prime minister, he is an ally of Prime Minister Robert Fico, and shares the PM’s dovish attitude towards Russia.

Mr Fico and his allies now control Slovakia’s parliament, government, and soon the president’s office.

Slovakia had been one of Ukraine’s staunchest allies before Mr Fico came to power in October on a pledge to halt supplies of Slovak Army military stocks to Kyiv. With Mr Pellegrini replacing Mrs Caputova, Ukraine has now definitively lost a voice of support in an EU and Nato capital.

That’s not good. I really hope Russian sympathizers don’t continue to win elections this year. Like the one in November for the USA.

Slovakians:

Let’s try the rampant crime party again! Surly, they won’t fuck us over!

Some time later when there is rampant crime and massive corruption with no way to vote them out: surprised Pikachu jpeg

They probably don’t have leopards in Slovakia, but there must be some sort of face-eating creatures over there

They have brown bears, but they have been eating their faces already before the elections - www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3YveLCOhQ8

There are allegations that our ministry of natural resources environment or someone connected is placing animal food (that would also intrest bears) near the towns so… not entirely sure this is not connected.
