The leader of ODS (Civic Democrats) did not preset the second government to president on Friday (December 15) as originally planed. Now current premier who has a mandate to create a government is negotiating with former coalition partners KDU (Christian Democrats) and Greens. He should present new cabinet to president this week. New government will ask the parliament for confidence vote in the middle of January.
Our view: Government created with ODS, KDU and Greens supported by deserter from CSSD (Social democrats) would reached close majority in the chamber, 101 against 99 votes. All coalition parties agreed that new cabinet should be reform or there should be early elections.
