Vít Rakušan stated that Finland had long-standing experience due to its shared border with Russia. He described the failure to support Finland's proposal to limit the entry of Russians into the EU as a major mistake. According to him, neither the Union nor the Czech Republic could ignore the rising number of sabotages on Czech territory, and given its historical experience, the Czech Republic should have unequivocally supported the Finnish initiative. #EU #Rusko #Finsko (translated)

Andrej Fiskovec wrote that Marco Rubio claimed that Starshield had no connection to Ukraine. Fiskovec argued that U.S. government contracts indicated that the U.S. Air Force was procuring the service with funds from a foreign government and that the connection for the Ukrainian army was being funded by Germany and Poland. When Washington restricted the service, Fiskovec claimed it interfered with a contract that had already been paid for, in which he was the supplier himself. Fiskovec stated that this approach could have far-reaching consequences for future contracts between Washington and its allies, regardless of who will be in the White House. In his article, he addressed how the restrictions on access to Starlink and Starshield services harmed Ukraine. He added that the article was not behind a paywall and asked readers to share and subscribe. https://t.co/SGhsCmhDZZ #Starshield #Ukrajina #Washington (translated)

Ondra Černý, who stated that he is studying for a master's program in public law in France and is also dealing with internal security law, explained the differences between three French security components. According to him, the municipal police fall under the mayor and focus mainly on local order, prevention, supervision, and handling misdemeanors. He does not believe they are primarily intended to suppress large-scale violent riots. Černý wrote that municipal police officers may face hundreds of aggressive individuals during violent demonstrations and typically lack the training, equipment, or manpower of specialized state units. Therefore, he described their retreat as a possible security necessity, not necessarily cowardice. He stated that the national police fall under the Ministry of the Interior and that its CRS units are trained for interventions during large demonstrations. He characterized the gendarmerie as an armed force of a military nature; its mobile units intervene during riots and also use Centaure armored vehicles. He described the CRS and mobile gendarmerie as the backbone of the French system for managing large demonstrations. He added that the municipal police cannot conduct general identity checks based solely on suspicion, but they can do so when dealing with legally defined offenses. If a person refuses to cooperate, according to him, the municipal police officer must contact the relevant officer from the national police or gendarmerie. Černý also mentioned that in France there are joint workspaces and coordinated patrols of municipal and national police, aimed at improving cooperation and information sharing; however, he noted that a joint workspace does not mean the same powers. #Francie #veřejnéprávo #bezpečnost (translated)

Rakušan stated that he would welcome the return of Great Britain to the EU, not because of its contribution to the European treasury, but because of the benefit to common European security and the strategic importance of the Union. #EU #Babiš #Británie (translated)
