The new Czech government has been sworn in

 


 The long pause after the elections in the Czech Republic ended after a new government took office and promised to urgently deal with the new wave of coronavirus, inflation, energy prices and growing budget deficits, writes the British newspaper The Guardian.

Ten weeks after the decisive victory in the general election, a government of a five-party coalition led by Peter Fiala, the new prime minister, was sworn in by Czech President Milos Zeman, who called on him to do "something useful" amid terrible warnings of a crisis. the Central European country.

 Zeman, whose poor health and long hospital stays delayed his inauguration, addressed the new government at the swearing-in ceremony at the Presidential House in Lani Castle in Bohemia, after which Fiala laid a wreath at the grave of Tomas Masaryk, founder and first president of Czechoslovakia.

"The easiest thing would be to just wish you success, but that's not very specific," Zeman told the 18-member new cabinet after all new ministers passed Covid-19 tests before being allowed to participate. "That is why I would like to wish you to leave behind something useful. It sounds obvious, but it's not obvious. "
