Nope, because Orban's party denies the legitimacy of Slovakia as an independent state via their grievance culture over the Treaty of Trianon
Fico and other similar politicians are still great friends with orban. Even the Slovak National Party, which is ironic because they were incredibly anti-hungrian bck in the day. But sharing dream of totalitarian country unites.
I bet Putin would lovento get us back into Russian sphere of influence as well and yet Fico and co. still lick his boots.
This is exactly why nationalism is such a huge problem in Europe. The key idea behind the various nationalist platforms is to never accept compromise when dealing with other nations (muh sovereignty!!). Canβt see how this will not result in war, unless voters change their mind.
Slovakia is a NATO state and if Orban tried invading Poland alone would probably have him in a wagon on the way to the Hague before America was even ready to fully deploy.
