All right, Alexander, let's talk about the assassination attempt on Slovakia Prime Minister Robert Fizzo.

We're a couple of days removed from when this incident occurred.

The reports are that he's going to make it through, but I would imagine he's not going to be the

same. I mean, I've read a lot of analysis and reports saying that this is going to be a very

difficult thing for him to overcome this type of tragedy, a shooting to, from what I understand, to his abdomen, and turmoil in

Slovakia as well. And the UK media, especially the UK media and the US media to a certain

And of course, he's not a friend of Putin or a friend of Russia. He's a Slovak patron who wants

been Prime Minister of Slovakia for 11 out of the last 18 years and has done a good job

by all accounts. Slovakia, the poorer part of the former Czechoslovakia, has been economically

successful during the time that FISA has been running things. And why they've just re-elected
