Havlíček says students put trick questions to Babiš in now viral video

ANO’s Karel Havlíček has defended the performance of party leader and presidential candidate Andrej Babiš on a TV Prima show in which school children pose general knowledge questions to visitors.

Mr. Havlíček told the news site Seznam Zprávy that the students had posed “trick questions” in the programme To the Blackboard!, a clip from which has gone viral.

Among the things the ANO chief did not know was the name of the best-known work by writer Jaroslav Hašek (The Good Soldier Švejk). He was also unaware of the slogan above the stage at the National Theatre in Prague (Národ Sobě/The Nation Together).
