But since last year – spurred into action by the UK’s Brexit vote – he has also been travelling the length and breadth of the country trying to convince ordinary Czechs of the merits of remaining in the European Union. When we spoke, Špicar shared the insights he has gleaned from dozens of such public debates. But first I asked him why he felt the pro-EU atmosphere in Czech society prior to accession in 2004 had evidently dissipated so much. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/spicar_radek1.jpg?timestamp=1590398095 Radek Špicar – Business leader spurred by Brexit vote to combat Czech Euroscepticism at local level https://english.radio.cz/radek-spicar-business-leader-spurred-brexit-vote-combat-czech-euroscepticism-8130699 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
