Slovakia’s government distances from Ukraine—but its citizens send warmth in €1 million donations instead
" In under two weeks, nearly 19,000 Slovaks fund generators and charging stations for Ukraine’s hardest-hit regions. "
" While Slovakia’s authorities attempt to distance themselves from supporting Ukraine, civil society has done the opposite. In less than two weeks, Slovak activists and ordinary citizens raised more than €1 million to support Ukraine, according to Novyny. "
