Has the Brexit mess impacted discussion of a potential Czech departure from the EU? Will the country ever adopt the Euro? And what should we be looking out for in the European Parliament elections in a few weeks’ time? These were just some of the issues Ian Willoughby discussed in Olomouc recently with a number of experts: sociologist Jan Hartl of the STEM polling agency; Karel Barták, a former CTK journalist who was a Brussels insider during a lengthy spell working for the European Commission; Pavol Baboš, a researcher and lecturer at the Department of Political Science at Comenius University in Bratislava; and Filip Nerad, Czech Radio’s European analyst. encr@radio.cz (Cesky Rozhlas)webmaster@radio.cz (CRo Webmaster) https://english.radio.cz/sites/default/files/images/debata_15_let_eu_bartak_karel.jpg?timestamp=1714470141 https://english.radio.cz/fifteen-years-czech-eu-membership-a-debate-8132492 Radio Prague International Radio Prague International radio.prague.int@gmail.com clean 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
