Dec 23 (Reuters) - Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on Monday that Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico declined an offer of compensation for losses from an expiring Russian gas transit deal via Ukraine.
"We gave him an offer for possible compensation for the Slovaks ... for losses from Russian transit, and for transit alternatives - any other gas, not Russian, at the request of the European Commission," Zelenskiy said in his evening address.
He added that "Fico did not want compensation for the Slovaks".
