Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico traveled to Washington, D.C., where he met with billionaire and influential ally of the U.S. president, Elon Musk. Fico had requested the meeting in a letter more than a week ago. This was reported by Aktuality.
Speaking about the meeting, the Slovak Prime Minister described Musk as “one of the most influential people not only in the U.S. but probably in the entire world.”
He stated that they discussed the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and agreed to “exchange information where absolutely necessary.”
The two also talked about tariffs and duties that former U.S. President Donald Trump plans to introduce, as well as their potential impact on the European Union and Slovakia.
Fico noted that he does not expect Musk to visit Slovakia due to his busy schedule but extended an invitation to members of Musk’s team to explore the investment climate in the country.
