"The atmosphere among some in the media is such that even if I die, they'll still be saying I have a conflict of interest,"
"As I've said before and I will, of course, keep my word I'll explain everything to him,"
"I told him that I'm dealing with the matter and that whatever I do will be in line with the views of Czech courts and the European Commission,"
"The president underlined to the ANO chairman that he is bound by his pledge to uphold the Constitution. He therefore expects full clarity on how Mr. Babis intends to meet his constitutional and legal obligations,"
ANO emerged as the strongest party in the Czech parliamentary election and signed a coalition deal with two smaller conservative Eurosceptic parties. Andrej Babis regained sole ownership of Agrofert, a conglomerate that receives millions of euros in EU subsidies annually. Babis has not yet explained how he will resolve the resulting conflict of interest and has pledged to provide explanations. Babis told reporters he will explain matters and act in line with Czech courts and the European Commission. President Petr Pavel expects a public explanation and full clarity before naming Babis prime minister.
