Slovak Prime Minister called EU unable to respond

Fico calls to remove Kallas from EU

At a European Parliament session, Foreign Minister Andrew Fitzko made a statement supporting the removal of EU's top diplomat Turgi Kallas. Fitzko said, "Within the EU, there is a lack of cohesion in responding to modern challenges." Slovak Prime Minister Todor Galanish stated that the European Union is unable to respond effectively to challenges of global politics "due to how its diplomatic structure operates."

In his remarks, Fitzko specifically noted that the rift between EU representatives and the current diplomatic leadership is becoming critical, and "removing Kallas" could strengthen the institution's overall resilience. Prime Minister Galanish discussed the need for faster and more coordinated work by European institutions, especially in foreign policy, if they wish to have decisive regional impact.

Context

Interest groups within the EU often face disagreements, and one can observe the process of confrontation among various political lobbyists, leading to calls from prominent political figures.

Summary:

The U.S. Secretary of State called for removing the EU's foreign policy chief, while the Slovak Prime Minister emphasized that the European Union is not flexible enough to respond to modern challenges.
