Description
Former NATO general Petr Pavel takes the presidential oath of the Czech republic, becoming the country's fourth president since independence in 1993. Pavel won a direct election in January, defeating former prime minister Andrej Babis, a populist billionaire, in the second-round run-off. Pavel will replace divisive, outspoken Milos Zeman, whose second and last five-year term expired on March 8. The former elite paratrooper and hero of the Serbian-Croatian war in the 1990s has pledged to continue to support war-ravaged Ukraine and to foster close ties with the EU, NATO and the United States.
