On Monday, March 24, Slovakia’s governing coalition reached agreements on key parliamentary actions, including the election of the Parliamentary Speaker and the Deputy Governor of the National Bank. All government bills are expected to pass the first reading, along with a constitutional amendment proposal. Prime Minister Robert Fico confirmed that the coalition aims for a stable majority in Parliament to pass laws and hold votes.
The coalition discussions, which included new government members, were described as constructive. However, experts predict two possible outcomes for the Speaker’s election. Richard Raši could win with full support, but internal party divisions and external political pressures might cause uncertainty. The coalition's future remains in flux, with key decisions pending regarding support for specific political figures, like Ján Ferenčák and Andrej Danko.
