Green Party elects new leadership

The Green Party elected new leadership at its congress held at the National Museum of Agriculture in Prague on Saturday. Former diplomat Gabriela Svárovská and Prague 16 councillor Matěj Pomahač were chosen as the party's co-chairs.

This leadership change follows the resignation of the previous leaders after the party’s poor performance in the European elections in June and regional elections in September.

In their acceptance speeches, Svárovská and Pomahač emphasized the importance of building alliances with other parties ahead of next year's parliamentary elections. The Greens currently face low support, holding around 2 percent in recent polls, with their last parliamentary success dating back to 2006.
