New Chinese and Spanish ambassadors to Czechia sworn in

The new Chinese ambassador to Czechia, Feng Piao, and the new Spanish ambassador, Moreno Humet, were sworn in by President Miloš Zeman before his meeting with foreign diplomats on Thursday afternoon at Prague Castle.

The meeting between the head of state and foreign diplomats to Czechia is traditionally held on the eve of the national holiday celebrating the anniversary of the founding of Czechoslovakia on October 28. Last year and the year before, however, the event did not take place due to the coronavirus pandemic and the president's hospitalisation.
