Czechs to respond to US request within a month

The Czech Republic will respond to the US request to station a radar base on Czech territory within a month, according to Deputy Foreign Minister Tomas Pojar. If the answer is affirmative it would then take another several months to settle the details of a bilateral agreement and its approval in Parliament would be on the agenda either in the winter or spring of next year. The radar base would be part of a US anti-missile defence system in Central Europe stationed in the Czech Republic and Poland.
