110 female police officers, paramedics, firefighters and supervisors had a great time in Lány on Friday Paul smile. Among them, for example, is the policeman Šárka Havránková, former vice president of the largest police organization, Interpol.

Almost a women’s event

“It is the result of last year’s event, when Eva Pavlová met female veterans from the army,” Petr Fučík from the Office of the President of the Republic (KPR) contacted Bleska yesterday. Among the invited members – many of whom are still in active service, according to Fučík – there were only a few male “invaders”. In addition to the security guards, they were the chief of police Martin Vondrasek (51) and the head of the Prison Service Simon Micailidis (55). And the president? Meanwhile, he debated with statesmen about global security.

Warnings and criticism from statesmen

For the first time ever, the Globsec Central European security conference was held in the Czech capital yesterday. It is attended by 2,000 guests from 70 countries. Among them, as well as the Czech political staff, were, for example, the presidents of Finland or Serbia, prime ministers and ministers of foreign affairs or defence. And also representatives from the generality of the member states of the Alliance.

Warning and criticism

The recently elected head of the European Commission also spoke at the Prague Hilton Ursula von der Leyen (65). Without naming anyone, she pointed to European leaders who are happy to help Ukraine and are lenient towards Russia. “They blame the war on the attack, not the aggressor… So I want to ask them: Would you blame the Hungarians for the Soviet invasion in 1956? Would you blame the Czechs for the Soviet oppression in 1968?’ she asked emotionally. The head of the Commission also said that Europe must have the resources to defend itself and deter all enemies, which is why she wants to appoint a defense commissioner in the new European Commission.

The Czech head of state also addressed the war in his speech. “At the moment we are dealing with a Russia that still believes it has no reason to change its course,” mentioned Pavel although there is still an opportunity to assist Kyiv more effectively.

There were motorbikes too!

Yesterday, an event started at the Prague Exhibition Center that should not be missed by any lover of powerful machines – Prague Harley Days. It also includes the traditional sleepy ride through Prague, which takes place today. It is not clear whether the president will get his way as well. “I have no information that Mr. President is preparing for the motorcyclists to go through Prague. On August 30 and 31, he is participating in the Globsec Forum security conference,” Karolína Blinkova from KPR wrote to Bleska.

On Saturday, however, shortly after midday, the presidential couple was spotted at the festival. Pavel arrived shortly before one, his wife a little earlier and went through the event. The head of state came in casual clothes, Pavel wore pocket squares and a Harley-Davidson motorcycle T-shirt.
