Miloš Zeman: Re-election
In the second round of the presidential elections, held on January 26th and 27th, Czech citizens re-elected the xenophobic populist Miloš Zeman over the liberal, pro-European academic Jiri Drahoš. Mr. Zeman’s narrow victory, 51.37% to 48.63%, highlights deep divisions in the Czech society.
