Slovakia is heavily influenced by Russian propaganda, which started way before Corona times.
It's mainly the older people that are influenced by this, and a lot of young people either left the country already, or have concrete plans to leave.
It's really sad, how these old people are ruining the future of their children and grandchildren, really crazy.
You can say a lot about Russia, but they are very good with misinformation, it's a real threat for Europe.
My wife is from Slovakia, so I have front row seats on the whole situation. The kinds of misinformation these older people are willing to believe is really nuts.
