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 appointment will kickstart the creation of a new cabinet, which Babis’s ANO party will form in partnership with two smaller right-wing parties. This coalition is expected to play a significant role in shaping the country’s political landscape moving forward.
The appointment of Babis as prime minister represents a crucial step in the political transition of the Czech Republic, as the nation moves forward under a new government following the recent elections. 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.
As Babis prepares to take office, many are watching closely to see how the new coalition will impact the country’s domestic and foreign policies, especially in light of the ongoing challenges in Europe and beyond.
