Czech Centres network to expand to Serbia, Vietnam and Taiwan

In addition to Belgrade, a new Czech Centre branch should soon open in Hanoi and Taipei, Czech Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský said at a press conference in Prague on Friday.

According to Mr. Lipavský, the centres are essential for Czech foreign policy and for creating the image of Czechia abroad.

The global network, which is now operating in 26 countries, was established 30 years ago, and its aim is to promote Czech culture beyond the country’s borders.
