Czech foreign minister Zaorálek meets with his German counterpart Sigmar Gabriel

The Czech Minister of Foreign Affairs, Lubomír Zaorálek, met with his German counterpart Sigmar Gabriel in Prague on Saturday. The German Foreign Minister said after the meeting that it was important for him to get a better understanding of the Czech stance. He added that a key question is what the EU is to do to effectively stop waves of refugees who are heading for Europe from Africa, rather than arguing about the migrant quota. Mr Zaorálek repeated that the Czech Republic was not ready to change its resistance to taking in refugees. Sigmar Gabriel is also scheduled to visit the town of Beroun, a partner town of the German Goslar where he was born.
