Babiš rejected Pavel's proposal to resume constitutional meetings
Videos
Prime Minister Andrej Babiš of the ANO movement on Sunday, July 12, 2026, rejected President Petr Pavel's proposal to resume consultative meetings of the highest constitutional officials on the state's foreign policy. According to published information, the prime minister stated that he would not have time for such talks. denik.cz ↗
The proposal concerned the format in which the state's top representatives would consult on foreign policy issues. President Pavel sought to have it resumed, but Babiš did not support this approach. Available information indicates that the prime minister linked his refusal primarily to his busy schedule. forum24.cz ↗
Meetings of the highest constitutional officials are meant to serve the coordination of positions on foreign policy matters. In this case, however, their resumption does not appear imminent following Babiš's refusal. The available articles do not indicate that another date for talks or an alternative consultation mechanism has been announced.
Further developments will depend on whether the president revises the proposal, or whether the prime minister returns to the question of the meeting format. For now, it is only clear that the original form of the resumed consultations did not gain the prime minister's support.
