In the sixteenth episode of "The Slovak Snapshots" podcast, we'll traverse through a diverse landscape of news in Slovakia. From groundbreaking scientific achievements that will leave you in awe, to inspiring community initiatives that'll warm your heart, we've got it all covered. This podcast is purely about Slovakia in English.Robert Fico has been the owner of a new apartment in a lucrative new building under Bratislava's Calvary since Christmas. According to Aktuality.sk's findings, his colleague Dušan Muňko sold it to him for more than half a million euros, which is a bargain price in the case of this property. It should be paid only after the apartment is signed over to the four-time prime minister. In addition, the rent that Fico has paid so far should be deducted from the purchase price, so the price will be even more favorable.Prime Minister Robert Fico has still not credibly explained where he will get the money to buy a luxury apartment with a huge terrace in a lucrative new building. He claims that he earned at least half of the necessary sum from the media. However, his explanation is flawed.Slovakia and Hungary are the only European Union countries that have refused to condemn the supply of ballistic missiles by North Korea to Russia.
