Czech Greenpeace against planned US radar base

The Czech branch of Greenpeace rejected the planned US radar base because of its health risks and foreign policy impact. Speaking at a public meeting on Saturday, the Greenpeace spokesman said that the construction of the radar base in the Brdy military area could cause problems for gas and petrol deliveries, adding that Russia considered the radar base a provocation and used it as a pretext to make relations tense.
