Los aliados de Fico azuzan la crispación al responsabilizar a la prensa y la oposición del intento de magnicidio

Política

Sus partidarios culpan a la oposición y a la prensa liberal, mientras que la presidenta saliente y el jefe de Estado electo llaman a la calma. El clima de desconfianza y odio en el país ha llevado a un aumento de la tensión, y se espera que los políticos rebajen el tono de la conversación o utilicen el intento de asesinato para controlar a los medios y a la oposición.
