| Five outcomes of the coalition talks: Government might still go down |
| Bratislava, 29.08.2017 |

| Coalition leaders announce they will stick together, but just a few hours later SNS’ demand to oust Smer’s labour minister transpired. Fico does not seem ready to give him up.
Robert Fico of Smer, Andrej Danko of the Slovak National Party (SNS), and Béla Bugár of Most-Híd met on August 25 to talk about the damaged relationships among their coalition triad.
The meeting was expected to resolve the crisis the coalition had been in for two weeks, since Danko sent a letter to his partners withdrawing from the coalition agreement.
The three leaders’ talks had been repeatedly postponed over the past two weeks as the tension built up among the coalition partners. Based on media reports, Danko and Fico only communicated through text messages - and through the media.
But on Friday after their talks, Fico, Danko, and Bugár stood side by side in front of the cameras with smiles. Fico claimed their discussion was “long, serious, constructive and good”, as quoted by the Sme daily.
“I’m a practical man and if the chemistry is not working, I’m not able to work,” Danko told journalists following the meeting, stressing that the leaders straighten out their communication at the human level.
Here is what the coalition parties have agreed on:
1. They want to celebrate the Constitution
The three partners are determined to organise celebrations for the 25th anniversary of the Slovak Constitution’s signing on September 1 “in the spirit of cooperation between all three parties”, as Fico said. Constitution Day is usually marked with an open day in parliament in Slovakia. This year is special due to the 25th anniversary, and the open day will be followed by a 70-minute gala programme. The whole event is to cost almost €100,000.
