Robert Fico reveals purpose of his visit to Moscow

The meeting with Putin in Moscow was a reaction to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy telling EU leaders that Ukraine remains opposed to Russian gas being piped through its territory, Slovakia's Prime Minister Robert Fico said on Facebook.

Fico - a vocal critic of the European Union's support for Kyiv in the war - said they discussed supplies of Russian gas to Slovakia - which his country relies on.

"Top EU officials were informed about my journey and its purpose... on Friday," Fico wrote on Facebook.
