Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

EU Response to the Humanitarian Situation in Ukraine: Engagement with Ambassador of Slovakia

H.E. Mr. Igor Pokojný:

To have correct relations like equal partners, this is what is important for us. It does not matter if we are a nation of 5 million people or if we are a nation of a few hundred million people. It is not about this. It is about real equality and how we consider the other person - if he is our partner or not.

The Deputy mentioned the hybrid war and cyberattacks. The central and eastern European countries are very exposed to cyberwar, but especially to disinformation campaigns. There are huge disinformation campaigns. At the beginning, sometimes you could read two opposite forms of information on the website.
