MPs Jana Černochová (ODS) and Ivan Bartoš (Pirates) criticize the cancellation of the contract for armored vehicles worth 24.7 billion crowns and are asking the ministry for a specific explanation. (translated)

Engineers and military medics have been waiting for protected vehicles since 2018. The Ministry of Defense has now canceled the tender for 24.7 billion CZK.

This is neither fast nor efficient, so in the end, we will have to deal with it later and at a very high cost, which is unacceptable. I will immediately submit an interpellation to Minister Zůna and we will open the topic in the Defense Committee. We will again lack the capability required in NATO Capability Targets 2025 for many years and this is unacceptable. (translated)
