PM's nuclear power announcement 'theater,' says Slovak opposition

Bratislava, Slovakia – The Slovak opposition party SaS has dismissed Prime Minister Robert Fico's recent announcement regarding a new nuclear power source as "mere theater."

SaS spokesperson Karol Galek stated that the Prime Minister's forceful declaration, reportedly involving him banging his fist on the table, is not backed by facts. The party specifically disputes the claim that Westinghouse is the only available supplier for the necessary technology.

"It is not true that the only supplier of the technology is the company Westinghouse," SaS said in a statement. The party suggests that other suppliers exist and that the government's narrative is misleading the public about the true state of affairs regarding nuclear energy development in Slovakia.

SaS has consistently expressed skepticism about the government's energy policies and transparency. This latest criticism highlights ongoing political tensions surrounding Slovakia's energy future and the procurement of new power generation facilities.
