A same-sex couple are suing Slovak authorities for refusing to register their 2020 Austrian marriage, testing whether a landmark EU court ruling can force recognition at home. Slovakia, where same-sex marriage and civil partnerships are illegal, cited its constitutional definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman. The case exposes a clash between EU obligations and national restrictions under Robert Fico's government.
