Neo-Nationalist Parties Form Strong Wing in Slovak Parliament
PRAGUE (Sputnik) – In case all the six parties join the coalition, it will have 87 out of 150 seats in the parliament.

"I'm ready to make compromises, and if there is sufficient will from the rest of [the leaders of center-right parties], the government will be created and will be stable. We strive to ensure having 87 mandates," Sulik said, as quoted by the Teraz news outlet.

According to Sulik, the parties have already started informal negotiations on the issue.

The election to Slovakia's unicameral legislature, the National Council, took place on Saturday.

Eight parties in total, including the far-right Our Slovakia, are likely to be represented in the Slovak parliament.
