Slovakia and Hungary meet to discuss tensions
Bratislava - Slovakian Prime Minister Robert Fico and his Hungarian counterpart Ferenc Gyurcsany were meeting in the border town of Komarno-Revkomarom to discuss recent tensions between their two countries.
Hungarian right-wing extremists have demonstrated in recent weeks over territorial claims in Slovakia, which was once part of Hungary.
Fico has accused the Hungarian government of not doing anything to halt the demonstrations.
Meanwhile, Budapest has criticized Slovakia for the brutal treatment meted out by Slovakian police to right-wing extremists attending a football match in the southern Slovakian town of Dunajska Streda, also known as Dunaszerdahely in Hungarian.
Gyurcsany is also unhappy with Slovakian nationalist Jan Slota, whose party is in a coalition with Fico's in the Bratislava parliament, for insulting Hungarian politicians. (dpa)
