Mass protests in Prague against Babiš’s government Organizers expect around 400,000 people to take part in the demonstrations. People took to the streets with the slogan “We will not let our future be stolen.” The protest is directed against democratic backsliding and the growing influence of oligarchs. The opposition is sounding the alarm: authorities plan to change the funding of public media, cut defense spending, and soften rhetoric toward Russia. A key trigger is the “foreign agents” law, which critics say copies the Russian model. Protesters believe that if the current course is not stopped, the Czech Republic risks following the path of Hungary and Slovakia.
