Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico made his first public comments since being shot on May 15.
He posted a video on social media this Wednesday (5), in which he said he could return to work at the turn of June to July.
In the video, Fico said there was no reason to believe the attack was carried out by a “lone lunatic” and called the attacker a Slovak opposition activist.
Still, the prime minister added that he does not feel hatred for the attacker and stated that it was time for forgiveness.
“On May 15, a Slovak opposition activist tried to assassinate me in Handlova because of my political views,” Fico said in the video, adding that the medical team had prevented the worst.
“If everything goes well, I will be able to gradually return to work at the turn of June and July,” he added.
Robert Fico was transferred to home treatment, according to the hospital in the town of Banska Bystrica, where he was recovering from the attempted murder, on Friday (31).
