Czech President Zeman cursed live and praised Putin's policy

Czech President Milos Zeman swore on the live radio and praised the policy of Vladimir Putin, reports Radio Prague. "In Russia, there are still political parties, there are elections, in Russia there is an opposition press," Zeman said. Out -bloodwheel swore sounded when the president spoke about the Pussy Riot group. "Do you know what the word Pussy means? This is P *** a. And in the texts of this group - n *** And here, n *** and there. Just perfect political prisoners!" he said.

Zeman also spoke in relation to the Yukos case, saying that "the only thing he did not agree with was that Khodorkovsky went to prison alone, and not with the other oligarchs." He refused to recognize Khodorkovsky by a political prisoner. “Rather, he is a thief,” Zeman said.

Zeman was also asked why, out of eight participants in the 1968 demonstration, he awarded only Natalya Gorbanevskaya, who died a year ago in Paris, against the entry of Soviet troops into Czechoslovakia. Milos Zeman explained this decision by the fact that he could not exceed the quota by the number of awards. “Leave the right to decide who he will reward and who is not. Natalya Gorbanevskaya was perhaps the most striking participant in that demonstration. With the total number of 30 awarded, including five soldiers from Afghanistan, I would have to reduce the number of awarded from other areas, and this would be bad,” the Czech president said. Two other participants in the "Demonstrations of Seven" - Pavel Litvinov and Victor Finberg - boycotted the Gorbanevskaya posthumous award ceremony in connection with Zeman's position in the Ukrainian crisis.

The Prime Minister of the Czech Republic Boguslav Sobotki appreciated the last statements of the president as a bad example for young people, and former finance Minister Miroslav Kalosek said that Zeman "omitted the prestige of Prague City to the level of cheap beer."
