JAKARTA - The Slovak government has asked police to investigate former defense minister Jaroslav Nad for donating fighter jets and air defense systems to Ukraine to help him defend himself against the Russian invasion.
As reported by Reuters on Friday, June 21, the new government under the leadership of Robert Fico took sharp policy changes after taking power in October 2023 and halting any military supplies to Ukraine, even though they allowed commercial supplies to Ukraine.
The Slovakian government last year donated a dozen Russian-made MiG-29 fighters that had been banned from flying by Slovakia and were largely out of service, as well as the KUB air defense system.
Donating the air defense system will expose Slovakia's airspace and endanger its citizens, said Gaer Melicher, secretary of state at the Ministry of Defense and member of the ruling party Smer-SD.
"I believe Nad betrayed Slovakia," Melicher said at a briefing broadcast live on Facebook.
