Tomáš Chorý stated in a statement published by Nehoda Sport that he respected the decision of the sporting director of SK Slavia-football a.s. Přemysl Kovář in the internal disciplinary proceedings and did not intend to appeal against it. He also acknowledged the club's position after his dismissal and the statement of coach Jindřich Trpišovský. Chorý wrote that he was aware of the seriousness of the situation and was prepared to take responsibility for his actions. Given that the club's management had allowed him to leave during the winter transfer period, he considered an immediate termination of cooperation by agreement to be the best solution. He apologized to everyone he disappointed and thanked the fans, teammates, and people in the club for their support. At the same time, he expressed confidence that the parties would find a fair solution that would take into account the interests of the club and his further professional direction. #SKSlaviaPraha #fotbal #disciplinárnířízení (translated)

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)

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)

"There are two options in the game: a broad coalition of all these groupings with 29 mandates, or narrower cooperation only between the Mayors and the triple bloc with a narrow majority of 21 votes. This is what the leader of the Mayors, Věra Stojar, can imagine. However, for practical reasons, the spokesperson of the triple bloc and leader of Together for Zlín, Aleš Dufek from KDU-ČSL, rejects it," explains Radiožurnál reporter Michaela Kočendová. #Volby2026 #Koalice #Česko (translated)
