Bratislava, May 15 (TASR) - Head of the opposition Slovakia party Igor Matovic wished Premier Robert Fico, who was shot in Handlova on Wednesday, a speedy recovery.

"Robert Fico is my long-time political rival. That is politics. However, as a human being, I wish him a speedy recovery and I deeply condemn any violence. Fists and gun shots won't solve anything in politics. Please, let's be human," Matovic said in a statement.
