Slovak PM Fico eyes Bratislava mayoral win for coalition ally Ráža

Slovak PM Robert Fico signals that a victory for coalition candidate Ráža in Bratislava's mayoral race would be a political success, framing the local election as a test of national coalition strength. The outcome is uncertain, with long-term incumbent mayors facing challenges across Slovakia. This matters as it could shift the balance of power in the capital and signal broader political trends ahead of national elections.
