In the the fifteenth episode of "The Slovak Snapshots" podcast, we'll traverse through a diverse landscape of news in Slovakia. From groundbreaking scientific achievements that will leave you in awe, to inspiring community initiatives that'll warm your heart, we've got it all covered. This podcast is purely about Slovakia in English.From the New Year, we should have had a new, 15th ministry, namely the Ministry of Sport and Tourism. This was a condition for Andrej Danko and his SNS party to enter the government coalition.However, President Zuzana Čaputová decided to veto the relevant competence law. But not because of the creation of the ministry, but because of so-called unrelated additions to the law. And also, because the government troika hastily pushed it through just before the Christmas holidays without proper discussion.President Zuzana Čaputová's mandate expires in 2024. The outgoing president announced last year that she did not plan to run again for the post of head of state for family reasons. So far, only three candidates' names are officially known.Most recently, Andrej Danko, chairman of the SNS party, has also announced his plans to run. Andrej Danko admitted that he is collecting signatures for his presidential candidacy. He does not like the reticent attitude towards the elections on the part of the speaker of the parliament Petr Pellegrini.Slovak U20 hockey team lost to Finland 3:4 after extra time in the quarter-finals of the Junior World Championship.
