The Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies Markéta Pekarová Adamová received the Speaker of the Polish Sejm Szymon Hołownia. The main topic of the joint meeting was mutual inter-parliamentary cooperation in the context of the current political and security situation in Central Europe. The two chairmen will meet once more at the Globsec International Conference.
“The cooperation between our legislatures has a long tradition, and I am sincerely pleased that we continue to do so. After all, the interparliamentary group Friend of Poland is one of the most numerous in our country,” said the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies, Markéta Pekarová Adamová, and added: “The Central European region is going through a politically very difficult period today. In addition, both our countries face extremely serious security challenges related to the ongoing brutal Russian aggression against the West. Efforts for more intensive Czech-Polish dialogue and closer partnership are therefore not only meaningful but even existentially necessary.”
The Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies will speak with her Polish counterpart this again in a panel debate as part of the prestigious international security conference Globsec. Together with other speakers, they will deal with, among other things, the consequences of the recent elections to the European Parliament, the issue of growing populism, or the question of innovative ways of solving the urgent needs of citizens.
