Czechs Elect a General for President While Germany Releases its Leopards

Visegrad Insight Podcast - A podcast by Res Publica Foundation - Tuesdays

Petr Pavel secured the Czech Presidential office in a runoff vote interpreted as a referendum on Czech foreign policy. A significant win for Czech society, with a return to the spirit of decency and truth in politics. This is a striking resemblance to how President Zuzana Čaputová shaped her messages during a polarised debate when becoming the Slovak president. Wojciech Przybylski (Editor-in-Chief) and Martin Ehl (Visegrad Insight Senior Fellow) sit down to discuss the results and what's to come for Czechia. In the second part of the podcast, Editorial Director Miles R. Maftean talks with Sergej Sumlenny (European Resilience Initiative Center) about the recent developments of German arms delivery, its failed Russia policy, and the role industry plays in German foreign policy.
