On behalf of the European Union, I would like to congratulate Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka on the formation of the new government of the Czech Republic.
I am confident that his leadership will successfully take the country through challenges ahead and continue Czech Republic's constructive role and contribution to important European and regional issues.
I look forward to cooperating with Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka and to welcoming him at the next European Council in March.
