    Depends. Some figures like MLK Jr, sure. Others like Hitler or Trump can’t be replaced because the entire movement is a personality cult based on them. I’m not familiar with Slovakian politics, so I can’t say what would uave happened of he had been killed.

      He is a promiment politician (this is his fourth term as Prime Minister) and very popular in the pro-Russian crowd (he is PM for a reason), but I’d not say he has such cult following.

      That might change now though.
