Slovakian Prime Minister Resigns Amid Corruption Scandal
Former PM Robert Fico accused of accepting bribes from Italian mafia
New leader Peter Pellegrini vows to restore trust in government
Slovakia's Prime Minister Robert Fico has resigned after being accused of accepting bribes from the Italian mafia. Fico denies the allegations, but pressure has been mounting on him to step down since news of the scandal broke last week.
Fico has been replaced by Peter Pellegrini, who has vowed to restore trust in the government. Pellegrini has said that he will work to combat corruption and improve the country's economy.
The scandal has rocked Slovakia's government and raised questions about the country's commitment to fighting corruption. Fico's resignation is a major step towards restoring trust in the government, but much work remains to be done.
