CEC Group Inside Report - March 1

After a meeting of the State Security Council, the coalition government of Petr Fiala (ODS) decided to support Ukraine to the tune of CZK 300 million, including shipments of weapons and munition. The government also closed the Russian Consulates in Brno and Karlovy Vary and suspended the Czech Consulates in St. Petersburg and Yekaterinburg. This is a second strong anti‑Russian measure of Czech diplomacy after the government of Andrej Babis (ANO) expelled about 60 Russian diplomats last year in reaction to the terrorist attack in a Czech ammunition depot.
