Prime Minister Robert Fico asked Slovakia's president on Friday to dismiss the farm minister in a dispute over land transfers that has split...

...the ruling three-party coalition government.

President Ivan Gasparovic, announcing Fico's request to dismiss Miroslav Jurena, did not say how he had responded. But under the constitution, the president must heed Fico's request, putting the coalition's future in question.
