TN Live | Commission asks for postponement of Dukovany contract, suspects EU market distortions

The European Commission has asked the Czech Republic to postpone the signing of the contract for the construction of the Dukovany nuclear power plant. It is investigating whether the Korean company KHNP has obtained advantages in the tender that could distort the EU's internal market. Filip Křenek, an analyst at the EUROPEUM Institute, commented for TV Nova.

The information was not publicly available until today, so it may come as a surprise to some. When I had the opportunity to read the leaked letter, it shows that the Czech side has known about the whole thing since at least February. Therefore, the surprise is not entirely misplaced. At the moment, there are a number of question marks surrounding the whole matter, and it is not clear on what basis the Commission is conducting its investigation. One of the key questions is also why the Czech side allegedly did not respond to the letter at all.
