President Klaus says he is more pro-European than anyone else

Czech President Václav Klaus said on Tuesday he was more pro-European than anyone else. He added, however that being pro-European didn’t mean “to stand to attention whenever Brussels gives the order”. Klaus made these remarks at a meeting with the chairman of the Senate Přemysl Sobotka. President Klaus said he intended to meet Senators from all the different parties. He also didn’t rule out the possibility of meeting with Communist Party deputies, whose votes helped him win the presidential elections five years ago.
