Slovak President Suspends Military Aid to Ukraine Amid Political Shifts

Slovak President Zuzana Čaputová has halted the shipment of weapons to Ukraine, despite the technocratic interim government's consideration, as she adheres to the rule of law and respects the ongoing coalition talks to form a new government. This decision has caused tension with Ukraine, who sees it as a missed opportunity for Slovakia to provide military aid. A recent study shows that over half of Slovaks believe Ukraine is receiving too much help and that arms deliveries only prolong the war, possibly influenced by political rhetoric.
