Doing “useful things” in the horrible warning in Central European countries.
Zeman postponed the inauguration of the government due to poor health and a long hospital stay. He issued his appeal for a rally at the swearing-in ceremony of the Presidential Retreat at Lenny Castle in the Bohemian countryside. After that, Fiala was in Thomas Gallige. A wreath was laid at the grave of Masaryk, the founder and first president of Czechoslovakia.
“The easiest thing is to wish you success, but it’s not very specific,” Zeman told the new cabinet of 18 members, all of whom had been tested for Covid before they were allowed to participate. “So I hope you can leave something useful. It sounds obvious, but it’s not obvious.”
Fiala, 57, is a former professor of political science. Since the establishment of Czechoslovakia in 1993 after the disintegration of Czechoslovakia, he has become the 13th Prime Minister of the Czech Republic. He replaced the former oligarch billionaire Andrej Babiš (Andrej Babiš), who has been positioning himself to run for the President of the Czech Republic at the end of Zeman’s term in 2023, because his populist government last October Was defeated in the polls.
Fiala is the leader of the Civic Democratic Party (ODS) and the head of Spolu (Together), the largest faction of the alliance of the two groups.

Czech political analyst Albin Sybera said: “Petr Fiala can easily take over in the most difficult situations that any post-communist prime minister faces.” “He can easily and quickly take over. Found myself in a crisis situation provoked by ANO [Action for Dissatisfied Citizens, Babiš’ party] As well as the freedom and direct democracy of the extreme right, they are still powerful forces. “
The new prime minister, an admirer of Margaret Thatcher, rejected Zeman’s attempt to veto the appointment of the new foreign minister, Jan Lipavský, on the grounds that he allegedly Low academic qualifications and allegedly criticized Israel, which won a contest of strength. .
Vratislav Mynář, the head of Zeman’s office, in an obvious minor issue, alluded to the disagreement at the ceremony on Friday, declaring the new foreign minister as “Master… I’m sorry, bachelor, Jan Lipavsky.” This note was regarded as artificially implying that Lipavsky only had a bachelor’s degree instead of a graduate degree, which allegedly denied the reason for the failure.
Analysts believe that Zeman’s move is to maintain his influence on foreign policy, and he is trying to turn it to support the autocratic regimes of Russia and China.
