Thousands of Slovakians have taken to the streets to protest against Prime Minister Robert Fico 's government.

Dismissals in state-sponsored media and cultural institutions have triggered renewed protests.

Prime Minister Fico is apparently trying to secure his position along the lines of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban , writes Frida Ghitis .

Just a few weeks after the attack, Fico said that the perpetrator had been encouraged by the "unimaginably frustrated" opposition and "anti-government" media outlets in Slovakia . He added that these were backed by foreign powers such as the US -Hungarian billionaire George Soros . Hungarian Prime Minister Orban has often presented Soros , who is Jewish , as a puppet-master pulling the strings of the world, a classic antisemitic trope.
