Czech Communist Party holds protest against President Petr Pavel

A demonstration organized by the Czech Communist Party (KSČM) took place at Malostranské náměstí to protest against the current direction of the Czech Republic. Participants expressed dissatisfaction with President Petr Pavel, the government's policies, and the perceived militarization of the country.

Speakers at the event, including Michal Gulyáš and Josef Skála, addressed themes of war, the sale of the republic, and the fight against fascism. While organizers framed the event as a major movement to stop a Czech ‘Majdan’, reports indicate the turnout was relatively small, consisting of several hundred supporters.

Critics and observers noted the presence of controversial rhetoric and symbols during the gathering, which aimed to oppose public media, non-profit organizations, and current political leadership.
