Slovakia is at a critical crossroads as massive anti-government protests continue to voice discontent with Prime Minister Robert Fico's turn away from the EU and towards Moscow. The protests, which began in late December and continued on Friday, have been ongoing for three months and have seen tens of thousands of people rally every fortnight in Bratislava and beyond, demanding Fico's resignation. The demonstrations have spread to smaller towns, even in areas where support for Fico's ruling party is strong, and have been described as a "systematic movement aimed at maintaining pressure on the government and keeping public debate alive about the country's direction." This event took place on 03/21/2025 at the following location: Bratislava, Slovakia.
