The Foreign Affairs Ministry is not aware of any official information regarding the evacuation and closure of embassies in Kyiv, and it is actively monitoring the security situation in Ukraine. The statement was released in response to opposition Progressive Slovakia (PS) vice-chair Ivan Korčok 's statements about Russia's warning of large-scale strikes on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities.
The Ministry reminds the public that a Level 4 travel advisory remains in place for Slovak nationals, urging them to leave Ukraine immediately and avoid travelling to the country.
The Ministry assured that it has been actively monitoring and evaluating the security situation in Ukraine in close coordination with both Slovak and Ukrainian security forces. At the same time, it is in contact with both Slovak diplomatic missions in Ukraine, as well as with the diplomatic missions of other countries there.
Korčok said he had been informed by foreign partners about Russia's warning of major attacks on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities, saying that "the Russians quite openly announced that they will target decision-making centres and called on foreigners to leave Kyiv".
"The attacks are expected to be of a scale not witnessed since the outset of the aggression," added Korčok.
