In a recent statement regarding the Mýtnik case, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico remarked that everything necessary to be said about the issue had already been communicated. This comment came in light of a court ruling that unjustly convicted oligarch Jozef Brhel, his son, and former Secretary of State Radko Kuruc from Fico's third government. Fico’s refusal to engage further with the subject sparked criticism, as he claimed that many politicians have already expressed their views, rendering additional commentary pointless.

Fico’s reluctance also extended to the sentencing details, which were notably influenced by recent amendments to the Penal Code that reduced penalties for corruption and economic fraud. The Brhel family received conditional sentences and fines amounting to 2.7 million euros, despite being implicated in fraud involving sums as high as six million. This aspect of the ruling has drawn attention as it raises questions about the effectiveness of legal reforms and their impact on accountability in Slovakia.

As discussions continued, Fico asserted that he had provided his answers, despite the general consensus that he had avoided the critical questions regarding the implications of the court ruling on Kuruc's position at the Slovak Guarantee and Development Bank. His remarks contribute to ongoing concerns about transparency and responsibility within the Slovak political landscape, especially regarding issues of corruption and governance.
