I don't practice that sport.

I only go into the woods on weekends and when I have time with my children, so I don't practice that sport at all.

Tomac strongly refuted public speculation that the government list was formed under improper influence. Responding to accusations of backroom deals, he stated, "I don't practice that sport." He clarified that his weekend activities with his children are his only excursions into nature. Tomac emphasized his willingness to negotiate with involved parties until the final submission of the government program and team, but stressed that any demands must be well-justified, rejecting vague insinuations.

“

I want to go to the Victoria Palace with the team I proposed, but until the day of submitting the government program and the team, I am willing to discuss at any time with the parties and, where there are well-justified demands, to analyze them. Allusions or insinuations are not enough.
