The founder stated that someone asked him on Flitr about investing in real estate abroad. According to him, such an investment is a "big headache" for most people, and it is often driven more by the desire to boast to others about having their own apartment than by actual necessity. Owners typically do not have time to go there, and so they rent out the property short-term through Booking or Airbnb. As an example, he mentioned a wealthy friend who had to go to his apartment in Italy to repaint a wall allegedly stained with chocolate by guests from India. According to the founder, the income from short-term rentals often gets swallowed up by agency fees, repairs, taxes, and utilities, while the apartment wears out faster than with private recreational use. He asked whether someone over fifty with wealth in the mid to upper tens and a demanding job would want to deal with such a concern. He deemed three situations meaningful: when the owner does not work, wants to spend at least three to six months a year at the destination, and can pay in cash; when such an apartment is also used by the owner’s extended family, including adult children; or when a young family with small children who are not yet in school can spend half a year by the sea. Finally, he recommended reading the story of a person who, according to him, bought apartments in various places around the world, mostly in less attractive locations, for passive income. However, in reality, it brought him worries, extra work, and financial loss. https://t.co/9cTBrLdPVX #investování #nemovitosti #pronájmy (translated)

Lukáš Valášek wrote that Foreign Minister Petr Macinka rejected support for the Finnish proposal to limit the entry of hundreds of thousands of Russians into the EU. According to him, Macinka claimed that the initiative had no chance of success. Valášek added that the Czech Republic had applied a similar regime, but Russians could enter the country from neighboring states. According to Valášek, Macinka's decision went against the positions of the top leadership of the Foreign Ministry, as was evident from internal communications he had access to. Čeněk Hajný, head of the director’s office of the European Department of the Ministry, reportedly recommended joining the Finnish initiative because its content was in line with Czech positions. Valášek stated that Russians were obtaining about half a million visas to the EU each year, with the most being issued by Italy and Spain. Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen reportedly pointed out in a letter to Prague the Russian attacks on Ukraine as well as the threat of sabotage and other hybrid operations in the EU. She proposed not to issue visas for non-essential travel, including tourism. https://t.co/VYoTXSXV92 #Rusko #EU #viza (translated)

Schools, hospitals, and homes remain under attack. Russian sabotage and other hybrid operations threaten the European Union. The Kremlin assesses our determination based on our actions. Where they encounter hesitation, they push further. We must raise the price they pay for their illegal war, and part of this response must also be Europe's visa policy. Valtonen wrote to Prague, suggesting, among other things, not granting visas for non-essential trips, including tourism. #Finsko #Rusko #víza (translated)

The author claimed that in France the police fled and left the residents at the mercy of groups of migrants and leftist activists.

Petra Pecková stated that she heard Motorist MP Miroslav Krejčí talking about the need to significantly increase the number of special schools in connection with changes to school inclusion. According to her, Krejčí said that the capacities should be provided by the regions, and that if these were insufficient, their funding from RUD could be reduced. Pecková asked if Krejčí knew how much money the regions had lost since January due to the current government's measures. According to her, the Central Bohemian Region is now roughly four billion crowns in the red. She noted that the state sent the region two billion less for social services, another 500 million crowns is intended for salary increases in social services, and about 900 million for changes in wage tariffs and salary increases for officials, cultural workers, and public administration employees. The increase in wages in healthcare, she said, means an impact of 450 million crowns. She further wrote that the regions lost money for regional roads, estimating the impact on the Central Bohemian Region at between 340 million and one billion crowns over the years. According to her, she did not even take into account the VAT from compensations to public transport carriers, which should have an impact of 1.4 billion crowns. Pecková messaged Krejčí that if the regions lose funding from RUD due to insufficient capacity of special schools, which she claims do not have the means to build them, he could finance them from donations from his sponsors. She added that money from gambling could thus serve a good purpose. #školství #inkluzivnívzdělávání #sociálníslužby (translated)

So let's say what Prague is. Who owns the hospitals? They belong to the Ministry of Health. Who owns the monuments? Who will build the Invalidovna? Who will pay for it? Well, our government. Who will build the Prague ring road? The Road and Motorway Directorate. And the universities, who finances them? Our government. When Babiš says that he will loosen their purse strings a bit now since they invest insufficiently anyway, it undoubtedly sounds like post-election threats, but it is not new. #Praha #Babiš #komunálnívolby (translated)
