The European Commission has concluded that Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš is in a conflict of interest because of Agrofert. The Commission communicated its position to the anti-corruption organization Transparency International in response to its May motion. ihned.cz ↗
According to the European Commission, the measures Babiš has taken so far are not sufficient to resolve the situation. The Prime Minister rejected the Commission's conclusions and called them nonsense. He had already stated earlier that he was not interested in the European Commission's position on a possible conflict of interest. svet.sme.sk ↗
The case also concerns the payment of subsidies to the Agrofert company. ODS chairman Martin Kupka on Wednesday called on Czech officials to exercise caution when deciding on subsidies for this holding. His appeal followed the publication of the European Commission's letter to Transparency International. novinky.cz ↗
The European Commission thus continues to consider Babiš's connection to Agrofert an unresolved problem. The further course of action may affect decisions by Czech authorities on agricultural subsidies and the Czech Republic's relationship with European funds. Details on any further measures by the Commission or on specific financial impacts have not yet been disclosed. SITA ↗
