Summary
Slovakia heads to the polls this Saturday for a high-stakes referendum that could end lifelong pensions for ex-leaders like Prime Minister Robert Fico and restore key anti-corruption institutions — but turnout may fall short of the 50% needed to make it binding. Triggered by a pro-Western opposition party’s petition, the vote pits historic political loyalty against reform, with Fico himself skipping the ballot. Only one referendum in Slovakia’s history has succeeded — and this one could reshape the nation’s future.
