"Discrediting one’s own country in pursuit of one’s political goals. That is how we might characterise the intervention of Mrs Beňová and her proposal to place a discussion on the situation in the Slovak police force on the agenda. Political manoeuvring of union bosses in the police force has nothing to do with the protection of working conditions and human rights. Their lies, half-truths and suppression of the facts regarding the salaries that, by the way, were raised two weeks prior to the meeting in question had the aim of manipulating decent police officers and undermining the effectiveness of the police, thereby depriving citizens of their right to protection and security. The prospect of the Slovak Government caving in to union bosses dangerously draws the police into the political strife. The political shenanigans of union bosses must not detract from the excellent results achieved by the police in the fight against organised crime and corruption in Slovakia. The slogans put up at the most recent meeting, such as ‘If the government will not pay the police, the mafia will be happy to’. go beyond all the accepted principles of independent trade union activity. The assembly right of the police has never been curtailed or questioned, as proven by the rally scheduled for next Saturday. Neither the European Parliament nor other institutions of the European Union should allow themselves to be drawn into these unsavoury political manoeuvrings, which have been orchestrated with the aim of discrediting the achievements of the governing coalition in Slovakia."@en1
