Peter Pellegrini of the ruling nationalist coalition is set to become Slovakia's president. The ruling coalition is opposed to providing Ukraine with military aid.
Pellegrini is in a coalition with Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico of the left-wing nationalist Smer-SD party, which won the parliamentary election in September 2023. Also a junior partner in the coalition is the far-right Slovak National Party (SNS).
Slovakia's president ratifies international agreements, appoints high-level judges, is the commander-in-chief of the armed forces and can veto laws passed by parliament.
Pellegrini portrayed [his opponent] Korcok as a war-monger doing the election campaign and suggested the candidate could drag Slovak troops into the war if elected.'
