Czech PM inaugurates Václav Havel Street in Luxembourg

Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala on Tuesday inaugurated a Václav Havel Street in Luxembourg, named after the world-renowned dissident, playwright and former Czechoslovak president. An interactive work by Czech artist Jiří David highlighting Havel's famous quote “Truth and Love Must Prevail over Lies and Hatred” stands at one end of the street, in the Kirchberg district. There is a small pillar from which the authentic voice of Václav Havel can be heard at the press of a button, as well as a QR code that translates his words into other languages. The ceremony marked the symbolic end of the Czech Presidency of the Council of the EU, which Sweden will take over from January 1.
