The framing emphasizes Fico's failures, o

Why these scores (Factual 85 · Objective 50): The article presents factual data about Slovakia's economic decline under Fico's leadership but uses strong, emotionally charged language like 'dobbrali' and 'neúspech' which imply judgment rather than neutrality. The tone is clearly critical of Fico.
