It is larger than initially designed, so I would like to thank the minister for his willingness to adjust it.

Lukáš Valášek thanked the ČT24 newsroom for the report on Yang Yi-min, whom he labeled as a Chinese propagandist. He stated that Yang is currently on trial accused of espionage for the Chinese communist government. Valášek questioned whether the government coalition would fulfill its promise to limit the crime of collaborating with a foreign power. According to him, this particular paragraph allowed the police to detain Yang. Previously, Yang had met with Jan Zahradil, a foreign policy advisor to Petr Macinka, the head of Motorists for Themselves. Valášek also wrote that according to the security community, China wants to exchange Yang for a Czech citizen detained in China. Although Petr Macinka asserted that the cases are unrelated, Valášek said that any potential exchange was decided by the court, not by politicians. https://t.co/UPgHMkzs18 #špionáž #Čína #justice (translated)

Katia Demetrashvili wrote that last week marked 12 years since the explosions in Vrbětice, which she claims were orchestrated by the Russian GRU and resulted in the deaths of two Czech citizens. She also stated that the BIS warned of a renewed increase in Russian sabotage in Europe and that Minister Macinka, despite the recommendations of his own experts, would refuse to restrict the movement of Russians. https://t.co/Rx4amIZ48O #Rusko #bezpečnost #evropa (translated)

The author stated that Minister Petr Macinka refused to support the Finnish proposal to limit the entry of Russians into the EU. He described his stance as incomprehensible given that, according to him, Russia was escalating sabotage and other hostile activities in Europe. He urged Macinka to clarify whose interests and security he is supposed to defend. #EU #Rusko #Bezpečnost #FI #RU #EU (translated)

Kutil Tona wrote that the governing parties suffered a significant defeat in the senatorial elections and quickly found a scapegoat: the voters, who, according to him, were unaware of the second round. He noted with exaggeration that these voters can uncover world conspiracies, calculate the returns on renewable energy sources, explain why electric cars cannot function, and determine who really runs the world, but the two-round system of the senatorial elections is too complicated for them. He added that Babiš, Macinka, and Okamura have a hard time with their voters. #volby #politika #senát (translated)

Petra Pecková wrote that according to experts, the content of the letter from the Finnish Foreign Minister was fully in line with Czech positions and they recommended joining the initiative. Minister Petr Macinka, according to her, acted against their recommendations and the interests of citizens. She described his decision as a step contrary to the opinion and recommendation of the expert apparatus of his ministry and stated that her father would compare Macinka to a person convinced of their own extraordinary wisdom. Pecková described the government as incompetent and wrote that people in the Czech Republic have no choice but to hope that Russia will not be interested in this small country in Central Europe for some time, whose location is, in her opinion, strategically crucial. #Česko #Politika #Vláda (translated)

The boycott of Babiš's products was criticized by Foreign Minister Petr Macinka as incompetent and pro-Russian, and he used insulting expressions regarding his appearance and intelligence. He wrote that at a time of looming Russian sabotage, Macinka decided that the Czech Republic would not support the Finnish proposal to limit the entry of Russians into the EU. He also noted that the Czech Republic applies a similar regime, but Russians can enter the country from neighboring states. https://t.co/IECIwMphNd #politika #Česko #Rusko (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)

The author of the contribution stated that Macinka flew to the UN meeting and back in business class for 200 thousand, which, according to him, is more than the total of five of his colleagues. He reminded that Macinka repeatedly spoke about the need to save throughout the entire state apparatus, and wrote that this was clearly not applicable to him. #politika #zbytečně #šetření #CZ (translated)

Barbora Mercury pointed out Macinka's reaction to the article about his flight to the UN summit, which she labeled as overpriced. She stated that he could have flown on the government plane along with the president. https://t.co/1pH0ZuXyOC #Macinka #summitOSN #politika (translated)

The author of the post stated that the president covered the cost of a private foreign trip, which motorists described as shocking. He also wrote that employees of the Foreign Ministry traveled together for 33 thousand, while Petr Macinka flew business class for 164 thousand from public funds, which according to him did not bother the motorists. He labeled their stance as a manifestation of hypocrisy. #politika #korupce #daně #CZ (translated)

Ondra Černý called the arrangements for Petr Pavel's flight to Morocco and Petr Macinka's trip to New York unnecessary. He stated that the president has enough money to pay for the trip himself and added that the foreign minister will not fly to the UN General Assembly with a low-cost airline just with a backpack and a snack. #politika #českárepublika #diplomacie (translated)

Aid to Kiev? Yes, but let's sit down to negotiate. To Moscow, stop the rhetoric of escalation. Petr Macinka, Deputy Prime Minister of the Czech Republic: "Aid to Kiev? Yes, but let's sit down to negotiate. To Moscow, stop the rhetoric of escalation." #Sanzioni #Trump #Russia (translated)

Jura Háček ironically compared the amount of 15 thousand euros for the president's flight ticket with the costs of Macinka's trip to New York. He wrote that Macinka, in his opinion, flew business class to avoid traveling with the president, and that his ticket cost 200 thousand. At the same time, he asked whether it was not more serious that the ministry paid 360,000 for tickets, even though, according to him, the travelers could have used a government special flight that landed in New York at the same time. In the post, he also stated that Boris labeled the price of 15 thousand euros as unusual, while according to AI's response, it was low. #politika #letenky #vláda (translated)

Kutil Tona wrote that Macinka flew to New York in business class for 197 thousand, although according to him he could have used a government special flight. According to his post, Zůna spent tens of thousands on an unused ticket. However, he labeled the private vacation of President Pavel as a true scandal, which Pavel allegedly paid for himself. He noted that critics would want to see a receipt for the use of the airport toilet in such a case. He also mentioned that Macinka likely arranged for a caretaker for Turka, so he did not have to fly either. According to Kutil Tona, the state thus saved at least one ticket, assuming the care was not in business class. #politika #skandál #letenky (translated)
