11/14/20 • 6 min

Current members of Slovak opposition party SMER as well as its former members in HLAS have decided to use a weapon of the heaviest caliber, the referendum. They believe that they can initiate early elections and consequently, fall of the current government led by Igor Matovič. Reasons behind their decision are outlined in a phone call from Bratislava, by our colleague Roman Riša - Opozičný SMER a jeho odídenci v strane HLAS sa rozhodli nasadiť proti súčasnej vláde zbraň najťažšieho kalibru, referendum. Veria, ze ním vyvolajú predčasné voľby a ukončia fungovanie premiéra Igora Matoviča. O dôvodoch hovorí v pravidlenom telefonáte z Bratislavy náš kolega, Roman Riša.

Freedom of November 1989 - Sloboda novembra 1989

As part of the commemorations of the peaceful Velvet Revolution that toppled the Communist regime in former Czechoslovakia 31 years ago, we speak with founders of GLOBAL SLOVAKIA, a not-for-profit organization that shares Slovakia with the world. The Velvet Revolution paved the way for democratic and economic reforms in the former Soviet satellite and Zuzana Palovic with Gabriela Bereghazyova remind us of freedom as we should not take it for granted even today, 31 years after the Iron Curtain was lifted! - V rámci spomienok na mierovú zamatovú revolúciu, ktorá pred 31 rokmi zvrhla komunistický režim v bývalom Československu, hovoríme so zakladateľmi neziskovej organizácie GLOBAL SLOVAKIA, ktorá “zdieľa” Slovensko so svetom. Nežná revolúcia pripravila cestu pre demokratické a ekonomické reformy a Zuzana Palovič s Gabrielou Beregházyovou nám pripomenú cenu slobody. Ktorú by sme ju nemali brať ako samozrejmosť ani dnes, 31 rokov po páde železnej opony!

Remembrance Day 2020 - Spomienkový deň 2020

Remembrance Day commemorations were a little different this year because of the coronavirus pandemic. After ANZAC Day ceremonies were disrupted in April, on November the 11th Australians also had a chance to reflect on the year. - Pamätný deň, 11.november bol tento rok iný. Avšak tak ako aprílové spomienky na ANZAC, aj tentoraz sme sa mali príležitosť zastaviť a zamyslieť. Hoci len pri televíznych obrazovkách.
