"No to Bases" initiative staging a protest march against US radar base

The "No to Bases" civic initiative staged a protest march against the possible stationing of a US radar base in the Brdy military zone on Saturday afternoon. Some 200 people attended the protest march, which took place at the planned location of the radar base.

Earlier this week, mayors from municipalities near the Brdy military grounds formed an association of towns and villages opposed to the deployment of a US radar base to the Czech Republic. If the Czech Republic and the US find agreement in negotiations, the radar base could be stationed at the Brdy military zone near Misov, west Bohemia, some 90 kilometres southwest of Prague.
