(TR) 37 years ago, the Chinese communist regime violently suppressed pro-democracy protests in Tiananmen Square. The truth is still censored in China. Therefore, we must take today's threats to Taiwan seriously. A regime that did not hesitate before its own citizens has aggression in its DNA.

(TR) Since January of this year, Bulgaria is the 21st member of the eurozone. Today, over 350 million Europeans use the euro 💪 My position is unchanging: staying in the "forint club" is nonsense for the Czech Republic. We need everyone we can convince about this so that we can be in the eurozone too! 🇪🇺

(TR) A fact that many do not understand and probably will never understand: Russia is not our ally, it considers us an enemy. It needs to be said out loud and repeated. I am glad that today we have a president who understands this and says it clearly. We remember what the era of pro-Russian Miloš Zeman looked like. Never again.

(TR) Selling explosives is nonsense. Ukraine has shown that the production of explosives and ammunition is not just business, but a matter of state security. At a time when Europe is strengthening its defense industry, do we want to sell it? Havlíček and Babiš could as well send an invitation letter to Russia.

(TR) Andrej Babiš lied about "Czechia being a priority." According to his stance on security, the biggest celebration is being prepared in the Kremlin. Caviar on the table, champagne chilled.

(TR) Today I have something to celebrate. For 11 years, the terrorist Russian regime has kept me on its sanctions list for condemning the annexation of Crimea. And because I haven't backed down even a bit during that time, and I still call criminals criminals, they "appreciated" my activities once again last year. I consider it an honor. 👍

(TR) Russia does not need to threaten. It is enough to send attacking drones over NATO territory and watch how quickly Europe gets used to it. Romania has been hit and is calling for a response. And that response must come! We will excuse acts of aggression for so long that it will become the norm - if we look away now, we will get slapped on the fingers.

(TR) I'm glad to hear that. May I ask why you are in coalition with SPD, whose representatives in discussions claim that Ukraine is to blame for this and why the government envoy is someone who repeats the Russian lie that NATO is responsible for the war?

(TR) NATO is said to be preparing for war with Russia. This is also what Jindřich Rajchl tells us. Of course. We are preparing for a war that the Kremlin has unleashed. They must be on drugs; otherwise, I cannot explain how their propaganda can shout this while they are bombing a neighboring country.

(TR) The security situation in the world is deteriorating and our government? Blindfolded, with ears covered. While the whole of Europe is massively strengthening its defense, we are listening to 150 other "priorities". No! The top priority of the state must be the security of its own country and citizens.

(TR) Barbarians! And here, we still find collaborators and useful pawns of Russia who would continue to buy their gas and oil, and continue to pour money into a regime that finances the murder of civilians in Ukraine. The chairman of the Chamber, Tomio Okamura, is at the forefront of politicians who act against the interests of our country.

(TR) Russia is a threat that has lived on aggression, lies, and intimidation for decades. Those who underestimate Europe's defense today play into Putin's hands because he fully exploits weakness. Without a strong army, we would make ourselves a target.

(TR) If Hlaváč wants to be taken seriously as the new chief of the general staff, he must have the courage to say clearly: the defense expenditures set during Babiš's time are not enough ❗️ The criminal Putin is not really watching the weather here. He is watching our weakness, indecision, and unpreparedness. Defense needs to be significantly strengthened.

(TR) The successful elimination of Reinhard Heydrich showed the Allies that the Czechs are not a nation of collaborators. It demonstrated that we are capable of successfully fighting against the occupiers. It directly contributed to Britain and France withdrawing their signatures from the Munich Agreement and that Czechoslovakia was restored after the war. He was

(TR) This morning at the Defense Committee, we discussed the proposal to appoint a new chief of the General Staff of the Czech Army. I wish the general a lot of strength, and I believe he will succeed in his role. What is concerning, however, is when the defense minister, who is well known not to have wanted him in the position, introduces him to us.

To, co kolem summitu NATO předvádějí Andrej Babiš a Petr Macinka, jde proti zájmům země. Jsem rád, že prezident má připravenu kompetenční žalobu, protože s touhle vládou národní hanby to po dobrém nejde. Pořád ale doufám, že dostanou rozum a tuhle JEJICH ostudu ještě odvrátí. https://t.co/wC1Cs7sVoB #NATOsummit #AndrejBabiš #kompetenčnížaloba

(TR) Russia threatens further attacks on Kyiv and calls them "retaliation." Putin's lie. It is not retaliation. Once again: Ukraine is defending itself against Russian aggression and doing everything for its survival. Only Russian collaborators can label the defense of an attacked country as "retaliation." And unfortunately, they are also sitting in the government coalition.

(TR) It seems that they no longer have anything to do with Agrofert, but at the beginning we see steps taken exactly in its favor and they do not hesitate to go against what the European Commission demands because of it. Andrej Babiš has remained mentally the owner of Agrofert and was never a prime minister who cared about the citizens.

(TR) "Chcimírové" tell us how vacationing in Kiev is and that there's "no fighting at all" there. Yesterday, after another massive Russian attack with ballistic missiles and hundreds of drones, there are dead, dozens injured, and schools and the surroundings of shelters affected. They should immediately apologize!

(TR) After four years of war, someone still believes that you can negotiate with the Kremlin mafia as if it were a normal civilization. No. Russia proves every day that it only wants to kill, destroy, and terrorize. Mr. Turk, Mrs. Konečná, Mr. Okamura, there is only one thing: admit that you understand absolutely nothing.

(TR) Winning the derby against Slovakia is always sweet 😎🇨🇿 But we need to appreciate the performance of our Slovak brothers 👏

(TR) Taiwanese companies in the Czech Republic are investing billions, building a strategic industry, and creating jobs. Meanwhile, our government thinks about how to appeal the most to the Chinese comrades and make fools of themselves. The most disgraceful foreign policy since 1989.

(TR) Let's summarize the events surrounding Minister Mrázová: ▪️ She played with emotions and lied ▪️ She played with emotions a second time and lied about holidays, like she prints ▪️ She makes fun of the real problems of citizens ▪️ She lives like a queen for 5000 CZK I ask you, @AndrejBabis, that she is still in office is also your shame.

(TR) Russia openly threatens Europe and our Minister of Defence: • He is banned from speaking without permission. • His Chief of General Staff is chosen by others, even against his will. • He observes that we will not fulfill our own NATO commitments to allies. All of them are a security risk.

(TR) "Somehow it didn’t work out, huh." A sentence that could hang over the entire era of Andrej Babiš. His delays are not a coincidence, but a method and style of politics that strikingly resembles the practices of Putin's criminal regime.

(TR) "Support for Ukraine is not just a moral obligation. It is a strategic necessity. It is not only the freedom and independence of Kyiv at stake, but the security of all of Europe." Giorgia Meloni More European leaders like that 👍

(TR) It is simply insane that in a time of the greatest security uncertainty in recent decades we have a defense minister just as a battery-operated mannequin. In all normal countries, this is one of the key figures of the government. Here, Andrej Babiš first prohibited him from speaking, and now he cannot even decide.

(TR) I have never had any illusions about Russia, and unfortunately, time has shown that I was right. That terrorist and criminal state must never catch us off guard again.

(TR) And here part of the political representation is pretending that we do not want Ukraine in NATO. Yet every sane state would do everything to have such an army by its side. The strongest army in Europe. An army with real combat experience from modern warfare. Rejecting it in NATO is madness.

(TR) Those who are the least conciliatory towards the Germans 81 years after the war paradoxically push Ukrainians the hardest towards peaceful coexistence with the criminal Putin. Chutzpah.

(TR) The communists from China have never ruled Taiwan, and hopefully never will! The conflict in the Taiwan Strait would economically destroy Europe. We must say: we will protect democratic Taiwan, we would impose tough sanctions on China and 100% tariffs. And Trump? He should have zero tolerance for authoritarian regimes.

(TR) Great step! 👍 Russia understands only strength. Those who are not prepared to defend Europe are asking for another war. A "military Schengen" is therefore a necessary defense of the civilized world. NATO tanks and soldiers must be able to travel through Europe as quickly as a truck crosses borders today.

(TR) As TOP 09, we presented a specific proposal during the budget negotiations on where to get money for defense. If the government increases defense spending, that's only good. But it dangerously starts to resemble Trump - it is awaited how Andrej Babiš will sleep and whether he will be in the mood to address citizen security.

(TR) On May 15, 1948 (the day after its establishment), Israel was attacked by the armies of neighboring Arab states, which had minimal weapons and faced the threat of defeat. And then Czechoslovakia helped - with weapons, aircraft, and training of pilots. Ben-Gurion later said that Czechoslovak weapons saved Israel. 🇨🇿🤝🇮🇱

SPD schovává svou nenávist za slovo vlastenectví. A myslí si, že čím více českých vlajek, tím lepší země. Jenže vlastenectví není štvaní lidí proti sobě, hledání nepřátel a obchod se strachem. Tohle s naší zemí nikdy nic dobrého neudělalo a neudělá. Proti tomu budu bojovat. https://t.co/uunXLLhu9X #Patriotism #Unity #AgainstHate

(TR) I met with the Cuban dissident José Daniel Ferrer, who spent years in prison fighting for freedom in Cuba. His story recalls the legacy of Václav Havel and support for people persecuted by authoritarian regimes. All the more shameful is that today the government is not heard on this topic.

Tak doufám, že do výběru nebude strkat nos Tomio Okamura, předseda ruské Státní dumy. Ten by totiž vybral někoho významně blíž Valeriji Gerasimovi než Karlu Řehkovi. https://t.co/0QK6HBzujS #politika #Česko #Rusko

Když už neplníš své závazky, tak alespoň jmenuješ zmocněnce pro jejich plnění. A pak z toho uděláš ještě větší grotesku tím, že ho označíš za svého zaměstnance, protože pro tebe je všechno majetek. Mentalita státu jako firmy zkrátka nikdy nezmizí. My ale nejsme holding 🚫 https://t.co/PNtiPcA9TP #politika #závazky #mentalita

Bavorský premiér Markus Söder potvrdil účast na sudetoněmeckém sjezdu v Brně a následně se setká s panem prezidentem Petrem Pavlem. Apeluji na českou vládu, aby nepokračovala v monstrózní ostudě, nepoškozovala česko-německé vztahy a nerozdmýchávala další nenávist. Fakt STAČILO. https://t.co/D74EPKCNKd #Česko #Německo #Politika

Tak si shrňme ty strašlivé „provokace“ na sjezdu Sudetských Němců v Brně: • uctění památky obětí šoa • poutě smíření • bohoslužby • koncerty. Prostě naprostý ideologický horor plný nenávisti. Největší hrozba? Pieta na Kounicových kolejích. Že @tomio_cz? #historie #smíření #pieta

„Kdo odmítá živit vlastní armádu, bude jednou živit armádu cizí.“ Historie už mnohokrát ukázala, že obrana státu není otázka ideologie, ale přežití. Silná armáda je na to, aby byl mír. Mám radost, že si většina občanů uvědomuje 👍 https://t.co/DmPXKzGLVb #obrana #bezpečnost #mír

Každý, kdo viděl přehlídku na Rudém náměstí, musel vidět: tohle není obraz sebevědomé velmoci. Tohle je režim, který se zoufale snaží působit silně, zatímco reálně stojí na vyčerpané ekonomice, propagandě a strachu. My z nich nemáme mít strach, ale zajistit, aby byli v izolaci. #politika #ekonomie #propaganda

Den Evropy 🇪🇺 Už 75 let platí, že když Evropa spolupracuje, je silnější. V dnešní době, kdy je znovu testována válkou na Ukrajině, si to musíme o to více připomínat. Protože jen jednotná a silná Evropa dokáže úspěšně čelit hrozbám a bránit demokratické hodnoty, na kterých stojí. https://t.co/zsBsxWUAhg #DenEvropy #Evropa #Spolupráce

O naši svobodu před 81 lety bojovalo mnoho lidí. Přesto jeden vyčnívá nade všemi. Ten, který nikdy nepodlehl iluzi míru. Ten, který od začátku věděl, jakému zlu Evropa čelí. A ten, který v nejtěžší chvíli vzal osud na svá bedra. Churchill je pro mě symbolem Dne vítězství. https://t.co/s6ouybKjFO #Svoboda #Historie #DenVítězství

Prezident ČR má jezdit na summit NATO. Vždy tam byl a vždy tam být má. Andrej Babiš a Petr Macinka a jejich frackovité ego ohrožuje naši reputaci u spojenců a jde proti zájmům země. Stojím za prezidentem 🇨🇿 #NATO #ČeskáRepublika #politika

Za Miloše Zemana nám slibovali pandu za přátelství s Čínou. Nakonec jsme místo pandy dostali maximálně pendrekem, když tu čínská ochranka mlátila naše občany obuškem. Já pořád věřím, že pro Česko má větší hodnotu havlovská diplomacie než ta zoologická. https://t.co/MOjJ2l4FtU #Česko #diplomacie #Zeman

Tohle je Miloš Zeman na summitu NATO, když vládlo hnutí ANO. Nikdo z nich tehdy na tu ostudu neřekl ani slovo a teď vyskakují na válečného hrdinu, respektovaného prezidenta a bývalého vysokého představitele NATO. Ubohé 👎 https://t.co/i3EXzotWVH #NATO #politika #MilošZeman

ANDREJ BABIŠ NIČÍ VZTAHY S NAŠÍM NEJDŮLEŽITĚJŠÍM OBCHODNÍM PARTNEREM. 🇨🇿🇩🇪 https://t.co/mFAP9uIaFz #Babiš #ČeskáRepublika #ObchodníVztahy

Vzít si za poradkyni někoho, koho vyznamenal Assad, je asi jako dělat si etickou komisi s mafiánem a vekslákem. Ale u Petra Macinky to nepřekvapí. Svůj k svému. #etika #politika #poradenství

Rusko je agresor a teroristický stát. A každý, kdo věří, že s Putinem lze „rozumně vyjednávat“, ignoruje dějiny. Stejně jako ti, kdo mávali papírkem a tvrdili, že zajistili mír s Hitlerem. Ne. Skončilo to až tehdy, když seděl zahnaný v bunkru a posílal neexistující jednotky. https://t.co/AYK0pFdYKQ #Rusko #agrese #historie
