Czech PM Blames Russian Propaganda For Mass Protests In Prague This Weekend

 

Euractiv: Czech PM blames pro-Russian forces for mass demonstration against government 

Pro-Russian forces are to blame for the protest against the Czech government’s foreign and economic policy in which 70,000 people gathered, according to Czech conservative Prime Minister Petr Fiala. 

The event was organised by radical political groups, including Communist Party and Freedom and the Direct Democracy Party. 

Organisers criticised the high energy prices and the pro-Western course of the current government. They also demanded short-term contracts for cheap gas and oil supplies or replacement of the management of the public TV and Radio broadcasters. 

The demonstration was called “Czechia First”. Some participants carried anti-EU or anti-NATO banners.
