Pavel to attend cabinet meeting as NATO delegation remains undecided
President Petr Pavel is attending Monday's cabinet meeting amid an ongoing dispute with the government over who should represent Czechia at next month's NATO summit in Ankara. The government was originally expected to decide on the composition of the delegation today, but Prime Minister Andrej Babiš has postponed the decision by two weeks.
Pavel maintains that he should lead the Czech delegation, while the government plans to send the prime minister along with the defence and foreign ministers. The issue is expected to remain unresolved until the cabinet revisits it later this month.
