🇸🇰 Minister J. Blanár also discussed the #RePowerEU legislation with the Russian Foreign Minister. #Slovakia voted against the legislation at the #EU level and has challenged it in court. The European Commission’s decision could pose risks for the long-term contract between the Slovak state-owned joint-stock company #SPP and its Russian counterpart.
