Babiš Wants to Discuss Missile Defense for Czech Republic in Israel
Prime Minister Andrej Babiš plans to visit Israel in the near future, where he wants to discuss purchasing air and anti-ballistic defense systems. He is particularly interested in Israeli technologies, including the Iron Dome system and Arrow missiles. novinky.cz ↗
Babiš stated that he had negotiated with an Israeli manufacturer that also supplied Arrow missiles to Germany. According to him, the Czech Republic should seek a system capable of destroying ballistic missiles. He describes air defense as one of the main priorities. seznamzpravy.cz ↗
The Prime Minister wants the Czech Republic to cooperate with Germany, France and Italy in building this capability. The joint approach of these countries should lead to the creation of effective protection against ballistic threats. ekonomickydenik.cz ↗
However, the planned purchase is not part of the current concept for building up the Czech army. Babiš's trip to Israel is meant to bring further negotiations on the possibilities of acquiring the system and on its potential incorporation into the Czech Republic's defense plans.
Details about the date of the visit or the specific type of system the Czech side would like to obtain have not yet been disclosed. Further steps will depend on the outcome of talks with Israeli officials and defense technology manufacturers.
