Het Financieele Dagblad: Why Czechs do not believe in closer European integration?
In their series, the Dutch newspaper focuses on local eurosceptic tendencies in the countries of the Visegrad group. Christian Lassen and Vít Havelka commented on the current state of affairs in the Czech Republic.
Christian Kvorning Lassen:

Vít Havelka:
