The Possibilities and Limits of Our Future

Letter to members by Oľga Gyárfášová, Institute for Public Affairs.

The results of early general election were indeed historical: a clear majority of MP mandates (83 out of 150) went to a single political party – Smer-SD – which means there will be a single-party government. The election results show citizens’ great trust in a future shaped predominantly by Smer. Five center-right parties are in the opposition. It is essential that these parties stop endlessly addressing their own internal issues and instead become a strong opposition force from Day 1 of the new electoral period.
