Slovak PM vows coalition effort after election setback
Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico said he would seek a governing coalition after his party won the most votes but saw a majority formed by four opposition groups. The opposition and an ethnic Hungarian party hold 79 seats in the 150 seat parliament, while Fico’s party leads with 62 seats. President Gasparovic will ask Fico to form a government. Iveta Radičová of the opposition SDĽCSU pledges talks to form a center right coalition, potentially making her the first female prime minister.
