Fico has undergone a new operation and his condition remains “really serious”

May 17. () –

The Prime Minister of Slovakia, Robert Fico, underwent surgery again this Friday and his condition after last Wednesday’s attack remains “really serious”, according to a joint statement from the Government and the hospital treating the president.

This Friday’s operation focused on the “elimination of necrotic tissue” caused by the shots he received two days ago, according to what the country’s deputy prime minister, Robert Kalinák, and the director of the Banská Bystrica hospital have announced.

“The patient is still conscious, stabilized, but his condition is still really serious,” the hospital director said in the statement, collected by the TASR agency.

The deputy prime minister, for his part, added that, despite Fico’s condition, “the country is not paralyzed and all processes continue to work.”
