Parliamentary Speaker Andrej Danko met top Russian officials, including President Vladimir Putin, during a Victory Day military parade in Moscow on Thursday. "I thanked President Putin, on behalf of the Slovak Republic and Slovak citizens, for the liberation of Slovakia by the parents and grandparents of today's Russians. I also thanked him for doing his utmost for a dialogue to resolve any problems," said Danko, who was the only parliamentary chairman from an EU country to take part in the military parade held in Red Square.
