Libertarec claimed that the votes for RTV were stolen, but the difference was said to be too small to take action. He noted that non-governmental organizations were buying votes and conducting door-to-door polling among people with drug and alcohol dependencies and other groups. According to him, Zorčič, by arbitrarily extending the process, helped the opponents gather enough votes. He believed that the matter was concluded and that challenging it would only reduce support, so it would be better to use more effective mechanisms. #politika #volitve #slovenija (translated)

Angelika Bazalová wrote that Igor Chaun demonstrated a filmmaker's sensitivity to the moment during his meeting with fifteen-year-old students. She described their conversation as a testament to the times and was particularly amused by the moments when the girls were unsure how to spell his surname. She reminded the students that Chaun was among the student leaders of 1989 and stated that he had directed approximately 60 documentary and feature films, written a number of screenplays, including the screenplay for the 1992 film Requiem for a Doll, and directed Czech Soda. Bazalová also criticized that someone explained to Chaun why, in his opinion, a "spy in a jet" was acceptable. She compared it to the behavior of communist officials before the Velvet Revolution, who, according to her, preached equality but considered themselves superior. She wrote that the particular spy behaved similarly and referred to himself as "the first among equals." She recalled the concerns at the time that the country would return to the past after thirty years and expressed her pity for Chaun. Finally, she noted that the girl in the background was visibly fidgeting during her classmate's speech, which, according to her, might have meant that she was having a hard time with the situation. She added that Veronika might still change her mind as she gains more sense. #dokumentárnífilm #sametovárevoluce #historie (translated)

There is a double symbolism in this – the occupier Konev and still in Dukla, a place exploited by communist propaganda and where one of the most flawed battles with the greatest losses on the Eastern Front took place. Therefore, Pilip wonders how the idea of erecting a statue of such a dubious personality as Konev could even arise. #Fico #Putin #Konev (translated)

The Minister of Culture Oto Klempíř responded to criticism regarding his past collaboration with the Communist State Security by asking how many books had been banned from the writer Petra Denemarková, and expressed disappointment over the audience's reaction during his speech at the Frankfurt Book Fair, where he was interrupted by booing and hissing. #Kultura #FrankfurtskýVeletrh #ČeskáLiteratura (translated)

David Rangl shared part of the speech by writer Radka Denemarková at the opening of the Frankfurt Book Fair, where Czech Republic was the guest of honor, and urged people to read. In her speech, Denemarková stated that, in her opinion, one cannot separate politics from literature at a time when Europe is heading towards authoritarianism, the power ambitions of individuals can plunge a state into chaos, and two former collaborators of the communist State Security are part of the Czech government. According to her, democracy has been limited by society to business and economic pragmatism. She also mentioned the threat that continental China poses to free Taiwan, the defense of Ukrainian freedom at the cost of many human lives, and the normalization of new fascisms, totalitarianisms, and genocides. #literatura #politika #Frankfurtskýknižníveletrh (translated)
