President Pavel: War in Ukraine also threatens Czechia

The war in Ukraine still represents an immediate threat to Czechia, and people should be prepared for the possibility that the conflict could, in various forms, reach Czechia as well. President Petr Pavel said this today in an interview for Czech Television on Prague’s Národní Street, where he joined other politicians and citizens in commemorating the events of November 1989 that triggered the fall of Communism in the country. By supporting Ukraine, which has been defending itself against Russian aggression for more than three years, Czechia is protecting its own security and the system in which it lives and wishes to continue living, he stated.
