Slovakia may consider reciprocal measures against Ukraine if it doesn’t allow the transit of gas from Russia to Europe.

Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said he was taken aback by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy’s refusal to allow flows after the two leaders spoke at a summit in Brussels. Zelenskiy said Ukraine won’t transit Russian-origin gas unless he has assurances the Kremlin won’t benefit financially while the war continues.
