Slovak minor party leader denies merger with Taraba, hints at broader cooperation

Peter Pčolinský, leader of the small party Bratia Slovenska, denies any merger with Tomáš Taraba, though he does not rule out future cooperation, including with the far-right Republika party. The presence of a former Kotleb associate in his party leadership raises questions about his political alignment. This is a minor development in Slovak domestic politics, with no immediate market impact.
