Slovak citizens raise $1.6 million for Czech ammunition initiative after government refuses to contribute
The organizers of the Slovak fundraising campaign said that they "refuse to accept" that their government did not join the initiative.
"Let's show that it's not just them who decide. We are convinced that the attitude of the government does not represent the majority of citizens. We are sure that we, the inhabitants of #Slovakia, want and know how to help," the #fundraising campaign's website says.
Slovak citizens have raised over $1.6 million in three days for the Czech ammunition initiative after Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico refused to contribute to the campaign to aid Ukraine.
