Commission Suspended Part of Agrofert Subsidies Due to Babiš Conflict of Interest
The European Commission concluded that Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš remains in a potential conflict of interest. The Agrofert holding therefore faces temporary suspension of reimbursement of part of subsidies from the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development and from cohesion funds. zpravy.aktualne.cz ↗
The Commission stated that the transfer of Agrofert shares to a trust fund in February does not adequately resolve the situation. The assessment concerns the Prime Minister's relationship to the holding and the possibility of influencing decisions related to European funds. The position of the European Commission was presented by its spokesperson Louise Bogeya. irozhlas.cz ↗
Babiš refused to address the Commission's position and stated that he was not interested in it. The opposition reacted to the verdict with criticism of the Prime Minister and questioned his previous claims that he had resolved the conflict of interest. Some opposition representatives stated that the decision could damage the Czech Republic's position. forum24.cz ↗
The suspension of reimbursement applies to part of the subsidies for companies from the Agrofert holding. The European Commission thus left open the question of whether Babiš's arrangement of his relationship to Agrofert meets EU rules for preventing conflicts of interest. e15.cz ↗
