Self-proclaimed Liberland state opens Prague permanent representation

The self-proclaimed micro-state Liberland has opened its permanent representation to the Czech Republic in Prague. Its president Vít Jedlička, who declared the state in a no man's land between Croatia and Serbia in April 2015, announced the news at a press conference on Wednesday. He said the new representation of Liberland is to develop relations with politicians and diplomats in the Czech Republic and provide services to Czechs who apply for Liberland citizenship. According to Jedlička, the Free Republic of Liberland has so far received 115,000 applications for citizenship.
