PM Petr Fiala wasn't invited to party on the Kyiv Line with Emmanuel Macron, Friedrich Merz and Keir Starmer, so he dashed over the Slovak border yesterday to Uzhhorod with three of his ministers to meet with Ukraine's PM, Denys Shmyhal. Part of framing Spolu's election campaign in terms of the security threat posed by Andrej Babiš is emphasizing, as Fiala did again yesterday, that Ukraine is fighting not only for its own security, but also for that of all of Europe. A recent STEM survey for the interior ministry suggests that Fiala is neglecting other key aspects of the security/safety issue. According to the STEM survey, 61% of Czechs think that public safety and criminality have worsened with the arrival of Ukrainian refugees, 52% think that placement in schools and kindergartens has worsened, and 51% think that housing availability has declined. And perhaps worst of all for Fiala's re-election chances, 57% of respondents think that the CR should stop providing military aid to Ukraine.
