PM Fiala: Putin's regime is monstrous

The regime of Russian President Vladimir Putin is monstrous and it is in Czechia’s interest that the Russian aggressor doesn’t succeed in Ukraine, PM Petr Fiala wrote on X on Saturday. Mr Fiala also said Russia's attack on Ukraine was a violation of the principles of sovereignty.

According to Foreign Minister Jan Lipavský, Ukraine has the right to self-defence and to restore its territorial integrity, including Crimea. Czechia will stand by Ukraine and provide all necessary assistance for as long as it is needed, Mr. Lipavský wrote on the X network. It will also support its integration into NATO and the EU for the sake of European security, Mr. Lipavský wrote on the X network.
