The agreement on the protection of Slovakia's airspace by the Czech Republic and Poland when Slovakia's MiG-29 fighter jets are grounded will be signed during the Slovak International Air Fest (SIAF) at Malacky-Kuchyna airbase, western Slovakia, on Saturday (August 27). The agreement's signatories will be Slovak Defence Minister Jaroslav Nad, Czech Defence Minister Jana Cernochova and Polish National Defence Minister Mariusz Blaszczak, she said. The Czech Republic and Poland have agreed to protect Slovakia's airspace until new F-16 fighter jets are supplied to Slovakia to replace the current MiG-29s.
