During a session of the Defense and Security Committee, Prosecutor General Maroš Žilinka expressed his concerns about political interference in the independence of the prosecution. He was summoned by committee chair Richard Glück as part of a broader investigation into decisions made by the Bratislava County Prosecutor's Office regarding the donation of military equipment to Ukraine. Žilinka's comments echoed earlier testimonies concerning political influence related to investigations involving associates of Prime Minister Robert Fico.

The meeting also included testimony from other officials, including County Prosecutor Rastislav Remeta and the head of the Supreme Audit Office, Ľubomír Andrassy. Remeta was called in to explain specific prosecutorial decisions, while Andrassy noted that he prefers not to participate in what he deemed a political game, pointing to the potential pitfalls and politicization of issues meant to be handled by the judiciary.

This situation reveals ongoing tensions in Slovakia concerning the autonomy of judicial branches amid political scrutiny, especially in light of recent controversies surrounding military aid to Ukraine. The emphasis on political pressure poses implications for the rule of law and the integrity of prosecutorial independence in Slovakia, which could influence future political dynamics and public trust in legal institutions.
