Ukraine-sceptic government ally Peter Pellegrini wins Slovakian presidential election
Close ally of populist prime minister Robert Fico claimed 53.85% of vote, beating pro-Western opposition Ivan Korčok
Pellegrini’s victory cemented Fico’s grip on power by giving him and his allies control of major strategic posts. The new government immediately halted any arms deliveries to Ukraine.
