Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala addresses the European Parliament

As Czechia takes over the rotating presidency of EU’s Council, MEPs welcome Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala to the plenary to discuss his country’s priorities for the next six months.
Ukraine’s post-war recovery, energy security and the management of the refugee crisis are on the top of the agenda. Czechia also wants to address defence capabilities and cyberspace security in the EU, as well as the resilience of the European economy and of democratic institutions.
The motto of the Czech Presidency is “Europe as a Task: Rethink, Rebuild, Repower”, recalling a speech made by the first Czech President Václav Havel and underlining the need “to re-evaluate current approaches and premises” in light of the Russian war of aggression against Ukraine.
