Upřímně blahopřeji @general_pavel k přesvědčivému vítězství ve volbách prezidenta České republiky. Oceňuji Vaši podporu Ukrajině a našemu boji proti ruské agresi. Těším se na naši úzkou osobní spolupráci ve prospěch národů Ukrajiny a České republiky a v zájmu sjednocené Evropy.

Quote from Zelenskyy: "I appreciate your support for Ukraine and our fight against Russian aggression. I look forward to close cooperation for the benefit of the people of Ukraine and the Czech Republic and for the benefit of a united Europe."
Details: After having counted 100% of the votes, retired General Petr Pavel has won the Czech presidential elections by collecting 58.3% of the votes.
General Pavel is known for holding the office of head of the NATO Military Committee, the second highest position in the Alliance after the Secretary General. No one from the Czech Republic has ever held such a high position in the Alliance before.
After this, Pavel resigned from his position in 2018 and started preparing for political activity.
It is important that he fully supports aid for Ukraine, and if he wins, then the president and the government will be like-minded bodies.
