The Slovakiam Prime Minister was shot multiple times in an assassination attempt. For those of you up on your Balkan politics, what does/would this do to the region militarily, if anything? A susoect is apparently in custody, so maybe it will depend on the identity of the shooter as well.

I suspect the fact that he leant towards Russia and opposed supporting Ukraine may be the cause, but I don't really know.

Slovakia isn't in the Balkans

Shooter was captured. First reports, but they could be wrong, says it is a lone wolf wacko. A 71 yr old ex security guard and book author.

Did this same PM have to resign several years ago because of the death of a journalist?

Old Yeller yes he's the one, earlier this year he ordered the closure of the department investigating the murder he's also closing the national broadcasting company.

Perhaps politically motivated, perhaps lone wolf, could be a mental health issue or even a gun rights issue. I guess it depends on which media outlet is reporting it.

Gets murkier as suspect had previous connections with a pro -Putin group – Slovacki Branci.
