- Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico, whose pro-Russian views have put him at odds with allies, sought to deepen cooperation in energy, railway links and grain transport with war-hit neighbour Ukraine on Thursday.

Yet Fico has been keen to keep business ties with Kyiv, including continuing to allow commercial arms deals to go ahead. He said the countries agreed that an old wide-gauge freight rail link from Slovakia's second biggest city of Kosice should begin passenger service to Kyiv.
