Czechs Going to the Polls: Eurosceptic Turn on the Horizon?
Former prime minister Andrej Babiš said his ANO movement, projected to win the elections, intends to govern alone.

Former prime minister Andrej Babiš said his ANO movement, projected to win the elections, intends to govern alone.

The former prime minister has vowed to fight the EU on migration and the Green Deal “madness.”

The former prime minister’s ANO movement opposes the Green Deal, the adoption of the euro, and has vowed zero tolerance for illegal migration.

Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán reacted to the incident by stating that “After Slovakia, violence has seeped into Czech politics as well.”

Eurosceptic forces are on the rise, and could form a coalition after the October elections.

According to the sinking government, those who suggest the EU would want to prevent the landslide victory of Patriots founder Andrej Babiš are the “enemies of democracy.”

Just as his party surges in the polls, Czech populist Andrej Babiš sees his acquittal overturned in what can be called a politically motivated decision.
President Petr Pavel has scheduled the parliamentary elections for October 3 and 4.

PM Fiala’s remaining four-party coalition now only has a narrow parliamentary majority and is unlikely to stop the Patriots’ resurgent ANO from taking back control next year.

Media reports celebrate the governing parties’ success in retaining their majority, but not one of the five coalition members could defeat Babiš’s sovereigntists alone.
