Denik P – Paukner Media addressed Filip Turek's apology for his statements about the DUHA Movement in a post. It stated that Turek repeated the wording of the court ruling in the video, but also mentioned which people he believed left the original team at the Ministry of the Environment. The author focused on their professional backgrounds and attitudes towards energy. Regarding Martin Sedlák, an advisor to Petr Hladík, it was written that he previously worked in the DUHA Movement and later led the Union of Modern Energy and the Alliance for a Zero-Emission Future. He attributed to him statements from 2009 and 2011 against the need for nuclear energy and stated that he collaborated with DUHA on delaying the completion of Temelín. Martin Ander, another former DUHA employee and advisor to the minister, was identified as a proponent of a zero-emission economy and strict measures against both coal and nuclear power plants. It was claimed that Ander advocated for the termination of Czech nuclear energy and that similar policies in Germany contributed to the consequences of the energy crisis. The head of the climate protection section at the ministry, Petr Holub, was also linked by the author to the DUHA Movement and opposition to nuclear energy. It was noted that Holub promoted climate education at the ministry and participated in the National Climate and Energy Plan, which, according to the post, set a 30% share of production from renewable sources. It was also claimed that Holub advocated for subsidy support in the law for the creation of renewable energy capacity corresponding to ten times the installed capacity of Dukovany. The author estimated the investment costs from 2023 to 2030 at 100 billion crowns per year and referred to a SEEPIA study. Eva Lejsalová, the director of PR at the ministry, was described by the author as a former director of the political institute of KDU-ČSL, not an environmental expert. Regarding communication director Martin Polívka, it was written that he was Hladík's chief of staff in Brno; according to the author, he did not have the necessary education and called himself a political marketing expert. Petr Holub's advisor, Edvard Sequens, was labeled as an anti-nuclear activist and a member of the Calla association. He attributed to him support for the rapid end of coal energy and industrial contraction and stated that the association opposed new reactors in Dukovany and Temelín even in 2025. According to the author, Sequens considered nuclear energy an outdated technology that could be replaced by renewable sources and lower energy consumption in industries. Regarding Radim Misiaček, the project director of acceleration zones, the author stated that his contract with the ministry included a fee of 7,000 crowns daily for selecting experts, without a specified working time. Among the selected, he mentioned Martin Abel, a candidate from the Greens and a member of the Climate Lawsuit association, and Eva Volfová, a politician from STAN, whom he claimed had gained a stake in a company drawing state contracts. He added that he believed the case was being investigated by the police. In conclusion, the author refused to assess whether they were experts. He reacted to the media's labeling of their departure from the ministry as an "exodus of experts" and "dismantling of the expert team," stating that he wanted to present the people Turek claimed to have "scraped" from the ministry. #HnutíDUHA #energetika #odborníci (translated)
