SIRIUS /Federal Territory/, November 17. /TASS/. The risk of another attempted assassination of Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico exists, Slovakian MP, PM’s adviser Jan Mazgut told TASS.
"Not only the political, but also the social situation in Slovakia is very tense as there are two groups of voters, with some of them being quite radical. I would not like to speak about it directly, but a certain threat [of an attempted assassination of Fico] and I would say the danger persist," he said when asked a respective question on the sidelines of an international conference on prospects of cooperation between BRICS and European countries that is underway in Sochi.
There are groups of voters in the country, which actively promote their radical views in the politics, Mazgut noted, adding that it has led to an attempted assassination of the prime minister.
