Poll: Most Czechs, including supporters of govt. parties, think Trump weakening NATO

Some 62 percent of Czechs believe that the Trump administration in the United States is weakening the defence capabilities of NATO, suggests a survey conducted last month for the STEM agency.

While ANO leader and PM Andrej Babiš has repeatedly signalled his admiration for Donald Trump, 63 percent of his party’s supporters feel the latter is undermining NATO, the poll indicates. This view is shared by 61 supporters of Freedom and Direct Democracy and 68 percent of Motorists voters.

Among the opposition parties in the lower house, around three-quarters of supporters say Trump is making NATO weaker.
