In his speech in the Council of Europe, Zeman said the annexation was a fait accompli and advised Ukraine to agree with Moscow on a compensation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">His words were praised by Russian government politicians but met with protests of Ukraine and most Czech politicians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Senate said Zeman, with his words, legitimised the Russian aggression that went counter to the international law.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">In 2016, the Senate called on Zeman to show restraint in his statements. The senators said the president should neither harm the respectability of other constitutional bodies nor should he jeopardise Prague&#8217;s system of values or its commitments as an ally.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prague, May 17 (CTK) &#8211; President Milos Zeman should not use statements that harm the good name of the Czech Republic, the Civic Democrat (ODS) senators said in a resolution they presented to media today. &nbsp; The resolution is another step within the criticism Zeman has faced in the upper house over his controversial statements, &#8230; <a title=\"MP&#8217;s Demand Zeman Stop Slandering Prague In Media\" class=\"read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/praguebusinessjournal.com\/mps-demand-zeman-stop-slandering-prague-in-media\/\" aria-label=\"Read more about MP&#8217;s Demand Zeman Stop Slandering Prague In Media\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":2309,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","enabled":false}}},"categories":[3],"tags":[15,176,6,323,97,28],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>MP&#039;s Demand Zeman Stop Slandering Prague In Media - Prague Business Journal<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/praguebusinessjournal.com\/mps-demand-zeman-stop-slandering-prague-in-media\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"MP&#039;s Demand Zeman Stop Slandering Prague In Media - Prague Business Journal\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Prague, May 17 (CTK) &#8211; President Milos Zeman should not use statements that harm the good name of the Czech Republic, the Civic Democrat (ODS) senators said in a resolution they presented to media today. &nbsp; The resolution is another step within the criticism Zeman has faced in the upper house over his controversial statements, ...
