Czech Republic is among the states that welcomed the largest number of Ukrainian refugees per capita, with absolute numbers coming close to 380,000 in June, 2022. Russian aggression against Ukraine has dramatically impacted the perception of Russia (and China) in the country, raised new security concerns and led to a consistent and strong support for Ukraine even among the social groups that could previously be considered partially pro-Russian. Ukraine In Flames #188 addresses the implications of the Russian war for the Czech Republic and how it provides Ukraine with much needed aid.
Speakers:
Pavel Fischer, Chairperson of the Committee on Foreign Affairs, Defence and Security, the Parliament of the Czech Republic
David Stulik, Senior Analyst at European Values Center for Security Policy
