President invites Ukrainian girl bullied at school to Prague Castle

President Petr Pavel received a young Ukrainian schoolgirl and her mother at Prague Castle on Saturday after videos circulated on social media showing the girl's Czech classmates calling her names and spitting at her on a school trip. A photo of the president meeting and shaking hands with the girl was published on his Twitter account. The president said he condemns bullying, humiliation and violence in schools in general, but especially in the case of a child who has had to leave her country and friends because of war.
