Political career

In 2016, Saková joined the Direction – Social Democracy party and she became the Secretary of State at the Ministry of Interior under Minister Robert Kaliňák, who was her political mentor. Following the resignation of Kaliňák due to the Murder of Ján Kuciak in 2018, she took over the ministry.

Prior the 2020 Slovak parliamentary election, Saková criticized the participation of Slovaks living abroad on the election, sparking fears of her potentially using her office to complicate voting from abroad. Following the election, she was among a large group of Direction MPs, who split from the party and started the new Voice – Social Democracy party.

Following the 2023 Slovak parliamentary election, Saková became the minister of economy. Immediately after the election, she claimed Ukraine should give up its territory to end the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
