    President Zeman isn’t technically the leader of the Czech Republic (Czechia). The president of czechia is a formal head of state who doesn’t have any significant power over national politics. The president is sort of like a monarch. The real “leader” is the prime minister Andrej Babiš.

    • @esajpsasipes2822
      @esajpsasipes2822 3 роки тому +4

      And most of us hate both of them, Zeman because he is making us look like... you saw it, and is too east, and Andrej because he's just catastrophe from slovakia (i'm sad, bro's), with a populist ANO party that 28% of the country somehow votes for. Also because of his party we have half bilion crowns budget deficit because of corona, but possibly not for one year and of course not used optimally, more like paying seniors for votes, and the shame. He also basicly steals grants from eu with his AGROFERT company, that also owns a lot of czech media (of course not all), and they both won't do anything about each other. But, hopefully, in the next elections they get out voted

    Wow, you did a really good job! You hit the nail on the head about China buying influence in small countries. I spent 6 days in Dominica (doe-men-EE-cah), NOT the Dominican Republic. The Chinese built their port, extended their runway and installed lighting so planes can come in at night, and built them a sports stadium so they can host games of Caribbean league soccer. A big thing there are the whale watching excursions, yet they vote in line with China to allow whale hunting. Hmm. It's a cheap way for China to buy a country's vote in the UN.

This is THE THING which will always piss of everybode from Czech, Poland Slovakia and Hungary. Yes we were part of eastern bloc but we're not eastern europe :D

    Great video, I appreciate the effort you put behind this series, but I would like to add some info. Miloš Zeman, the president of the Czech Republic is a populist, but I wouldn´t say he is a right-wing populist. Between the years 1997 to 2002 he was a member of Czech Social Democratic Party (ČSSD), which he represented even as a PM of the Czech Republic, which is undeniably a left-wing socialist party, and since 2009 he has been a member of the Party of Civic Rights - Zeman's people, which is also left-wing, but populist, and supports direct democracy. Zeman is a honorary leader of this party. But it is true, that throughout his 5 years (and another year) in service, he has gained the support of the Movement of Freedom and Direct Democracy, which is right-wing, anti-immigration, would love to see Czechia leaving EU, and is extremist. (His another supporters are: the communist party, movement ANO).
