Bratislava, June 21 (TASR) - Representatives of the centre-right parties SDKU-DS, Freedom and Solidarity (SaS), Christian Democratic Movement (KDH) and Most-Hid will meet on Tuesday (June 22) to discuss the new coalition agreement.
"Tuesday's discussions will be about formulating a manifesto, and also a prologue to dividing responsibilities vis-a-vis government and parliament," KDH Chairman Jan Figel said after the party's leadership session on Monday.
The four centre-right parties are currently holding unofficial talks over the issues to be included in the government's manifesto, with some of these issues set to be published on Tuesday.
Figel said that he finds the extent to which the parties managed to reach an agreement "encouraging". "However, without coming to the full agreement on everything, we don't have anything," he stressed, adding that the negotiations are moving towards full agreement.
Figel refused to specify the issues the parties have agreed on.
