Statement from The President: "Right now in a number of states the laws allow a baby to be born from his or her mother's womb in the 9th month. It is wrong. It has to change." Watch.

30 years ago, Václav Havel became Czechoslovakia’s first non-Communist President in 41 years. The speed of change in those November 1989 days was staggering.

#OnThisDay in 1989, Prime Minister Ladislav Adamec met with Václav Havel for the first time.

Adamec would be the last communist prime minister of Czechoslovakia.

Czechoslovakia's Velvet Revolution began on this day 30 years ago, November 17, 1989, when police violently quelled a student protest in Prague. Six weeks later Václav Havel was elected president as over four decades of communist one-party rule finally came to an end. 🇨🇿✌️
