Bratislava, May 2 (TASR) - Slovak National Party (SNS) chairman Jan Slota on STV chat show 'O 5 minut 12' (Five Minutes to Twelve) on Sunday might not have been sober when claiming that if SNS isn't part of the government after the June 12 election it will be the death of Slovak sovereignty, Most-Hid chairman Bela Bugar told TASR on the same day.
Slota also said that the Hungarian-Slovak party Most-Hid is a creation of Smer-SD, which invented it as a tool to weaken the ethnic-Hungarian SMK. At the same time, "Most-Hid may claim that it's building bridges, but it's doing so only to make way for (Hungarian) tanks," claimed Slota.
Bugar was unhappy that he wasn't able to counter Slota in his solo appearance on the public-service television programme. "STV is discriminating against extraparliamentary parties. The recent programme with (SMK chair Pal) Csaky, and this one with Slota too, were also about Most, while we weren't given the chance to respond to the nonsensical attacks, said Bugar.
"If I had been along with Slota on the programme, I would have told him that he should use his brain, as he certainly got it from God, and it's for thinking first and then speaking," concluded Bugar.
