Slovakia's former prime minister, Robert Fico, has won the backing of two allied parties, putting him on track to return to power. Fico campaigned to end military aid to Ukraine. He is forming a coalition government with his populist SMER party, the left-wing Hlas party, and the ultra-nationalist pro-Russian Slovak National Party. The September 30 election was seen as a win for Fico, who is considered a "pro-Moscow candidate." However, the election results also highlight the support Fico received from working-class voters, indicating that the vote was not solely about Ukraine. The election outcome has raised concerns about Europe's united front.
