Slovakia has announced its intention to file a legal challenge against the European Union's decision to prohibit imports of Natural Gas from Russia. Prime Minister Robert Fico stated on Friday that the government will submit the lawsuit to the Court of Justice of the European Union in the coming days, ahead of an April 27 deadline. The move follows a similar legal action taken by Hungary as both nations continue to source energy from Moscow despite broader regional efforts to decouple from Russian supplies.
