Czech President Petr Pavel has announced that he will appoint billionaire Andrej Babis, the winner of the recent elections, as the country’s new prime minister on 9 December.
The announcement, made on Thursday (4 December) by the presidential office, marks a pivotal moment in the formation of the Czech Republic’s new government.
Babis, a former prime minister and leader of the populist ANO party, will take on the role following the successful electoral campaign of his party.

The formation of a new cabinet with Babis at the helm signals a shift towards his populist policies, which have resonated with a significant portion of the electorate.
