[Putin Teases Slovak Prime Minister]
On May 9th, after hosting a reception for foreign delegations attending the celebration of the 80th anniversary of the victory in the Great Patriotic War in Moscow, Putin teased Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico: You have practically completed a race-like itinerary.
Fico only arrived in Moscow on the evening of May 8th. Due to the prohibition by Latvia, Lithuania, and Estonia for Fico's special aircraft to fly over their airspace, he had to take a detour via Hungary, Romania, the Black Sea, and Georgia to reach Moscow.
