because they certainly weren’t the Slovak people And so I’m really glad that the new government’s program statement clearly includes that our national interests must be at the center of attention even when making decisions on an international scale while not questioning our membership in the European Union or NATO But that doesn’t mean we must automatically agree with everything coming at us from these institutions The interests of Slovakia and the Slovak people are number one with us and that’s where our confident international politics stems from.  what would you like to engage in the most in the parliament but looking past the fact that I’m the youngest member of the current parliament I also hold the post of the Deputy Governor of the Trenčín self-governing region I can’t save the entire republic as just one lone member of the parliament but I know that I can roll up my sleeves and actually change life for the better in my native region all the while combining these two posts really enables me to move things forward Regional development and the quality of the life of our citizens in every single region - that is the agenda I am interested in on a long-term basis And of course since I proudly proclaim myself a social democrat I place great importance on improving a social state which will protect the weak or the ill support our families and our youth at the start of their lives and will enable our seniors to spend the winter of their lives in an active and exceptional manner.  What do you think Slovakia needs the most right now I will use the campaign narrative from the presidential election of our leader Peter Pellegrini to help with my answer: “Slovakia needs peace at long last.” Our big little nation has had enough polarization the endless stirring up  of our society in the style of politics against something or someone led Slovakia into a mess we’re now slowly getting up from we can make it through the hardest of times I feel like the result of last year’s elections split Slovakia into two irreconcilable parts this question of yours confirmed that my previous answer was correct I don’t want to be the kind of politician to try and convince people that he’s got one magical solution to everything but I’m convinced that if we finally changed Slovakia’s election system so that each region had its representative in the National Council and we would chase out all those know-it-alls who can’t really do anything beneficial for our republic or the people in our regions as we witnessed during the three and a half years of the reign of terror of Matovič and his lackeys.  Slovakia is expecting a presidential election Is it creating any sort of tension in the coalition I can guarantee that our coalition is stable despite the liberal media trying to paint a picture of some sort of a split capable of delivering on its pre-election promises The presidential election changes nothing in that aspect In the words of a classic: “It doesn’t matter if the cat is black or white it matters whether it can catch mice.”  and also the youngest regional Deputy Governor Do any of these seasoned politicians ever call you a youngling with no experience but I joined a political party the day after my 18th birthday and started getting involved at the regional level the second I had the chance to learn from the people who have been in charge of our cities municipalities or our regions for years and years I spent four years as an assistant to a member of the National Council meanwhile becoming the Deputy Governor of the Trenčín self-governing region I mean to say I didn’t enter the parliament as some sort of an activist with no basic political knowledge I mean to learn a lot from my older and more experienced colleagues and then use my young legs to carry me places that will benefit the Slovak people serving your nation is a never-ending process and I’m not some cocky guy incapable of taking advice.  What was it that led you to politics at such a young age And what attracted you to the HLAS-SD party I come from a family like any other in Slovakia later starting a small business of his own The values they instilled in me from a young age naturally shaped me and the basic pillars of the HLAS party - the social anti-fascist and integrational ones - are all  in accord with my personal values Of course I’m grateful that despite my young age the party allowed me to fight for the trust of the citizens Do you want to spend your life in professional politics?  Politics is astonishing in that once you betray your calling That’s why the trust of the Slovak people is the most important thing for me I will fight for our citizens until my last breath.  You took the parliamentary oath wearing a Myjava folk costume taking the oath in a folk costume wasn’t some cheap sham I’ve worn the costume proudly and with love since I was little thanks to  my Grandmother from Morava (I’ve got Moravian roots on my father’s side) That’s where the foundation stones of Slovak parliamentarism were once set when the first Slovak National Council met in 1848 in Myjava Ĺudovít Štúr and Michal Miloslav Hodža.  CV BOX Michal Bartek (born on the 16th of August 1999) is a member of the National Council of the Slovak republic and Deputy Governor of the Self-Governing Region of Trenčín.  Before entering the National Council he worked as an assistant to the MP Peter Kmec.  He’s lived his whole life in Nové Mesto nad Váhom in the Podjavorina region.  He has a son Matias with his partner and as he likes to note: “He‘s got one year two months and four teeth so far.”  He likes to jog to which he adds: “If it comes with a side of a good bottle of red wine or plum brandy THIS BEAUTIFUL postcard from the 1920s depicts the city of Nové Mesto nad Váhom (which literally means New City on the Váh River) THIS BEAUTIFUL postcard from the 1920s depicts the city of Nové Mesto nad Váhom (which literally means New City on the Váh River) The word “new” in its name tells us that a more ancient settlement once existed nearby as is the case with many Slovak towns and cities But Nové Mesto nad Váhom’s predecessor was likely destroyed by the Ottomans Jews settled in the town as early as in the 13th century Jews had established most of manufacturing businesses in Nové Mesto nad Váhom A spirits factory producing liqueurs and rum was founded by Jozef Kraus a company opened that produced walking sticks for gentlemen from England and India The town’s Jewish community was devastated by the Second World War 2,900 Jews were deported from Nové Mesto nad Váhom ďalšie aktuálne informácie nájdete na webe a vo vysielaní ta3 20:50 Pozrite si zábery z protestov v slovenských mestách: 20:40 „Podľa prvých odhadov protestovalo približne 100-tisíc ľudí pričom najväčšie zhromaždenia sa konali v Bratislave (45-tisíc) Košiciach (20-tisíc) a Banskej Bystrici (8-tisíc) Všetky protesty prebehli pokojne a bez incidentov no s jasným posolstvom – Ficova vláda ohrozuje demokraciu a smeruje krajinu k izolácii,“ uviedli vo svojom vyhlásení organizátori protestov Na bratislavskom proteste sa predstavil široký okruh rečníkov medzi ktorými nechýbali známe osobnosti z verejného života 20:35 Zhromaždenia proti krokom súčasnej vlády a na podporu demokratického smerovania Slovenska sa v piatok uskutočnili vo viac než 50 slovenských a zahraničných mestách Okrem Prahy či Brna slovenskí rodáci protestovali tiež v Amsterdame 20:30 Pozrite si zábery z protestu v Prahe: 19:36 V piatok večer sa na protestoch proti vláde Roberta Fica zúčastnilo približne 100-tisíc ľudí Zhromaždenia prebiehali vo viac ako 40 mestách ktoré vykonávali príslušníci Krajského riaditeľstva Policajného zboru v Bratislave mali za cieľ zabezpečiť pokojný priebeh protestov Všetky zhromaždenia sa skončili bez narušenia verejného poriadku 19:30 V Banskej Bystrici sa protestu zúčastnilo približne 6 -
