Current AffairsCzech celebrities demand referendum on US radar
Close to fifty Czech cultural figures, scientists and musicians on Thursday
signed a petition asking President Vaclav Klaus and the chairmen of both
houses of Parliament to support their demand for a referendum to be held
on whether the Czech Republic should host a US radar base on its
territory. Their public appeal has pleased the Social Democrats and
Communists, who are also pushing for a referendum, but the Czech
government maintains that questions of defense are not a matter to be
decided by the public.
