Prague, 3.2.09: Stop to deputies for radar
15.2.2009 - No to Bases Initiative
On Tuesday the 3rd of February, approximately thirty citizens took part in a protest in front of the Chamber of Deputies in Prague. The activists and sympathizers of the No to Bases Initiative walked around the Parliament with traffic signs "Stop to deputies for radar," thus attracting both Czech and foreign media (Reuters and Russia Today). The passing politicians were stopped by these "civic patrols" and could not escape the questions on radar and their stance on it.
Later on that day, the parliament decided not to discuss the radar treaties at sessions in February. Although Senate has already approved the radar treaties, Chamber of Deputies has not even started the so-called first reading of these international pacts. The completion of ratification process was further postponed.
