One in two Czechs opposed to radar base even in exchange for cancellation of US visas

Around half of all Czechs are against the construction of a US radar base in the Czech Republic even in return for visa-free travel to America, according to a new poll. The survey carried out by the RCA research agency says that 31% of the population would accept the base on Czech territory if it meant they no longer had to apply for visas to go to the US. In South Bohemia where proposed base would be located, only 12% of the local population are in favour of the facility.
