Paul Ryan’s visit to Prague
The Speaker of the US House of Representatives Paul Ryan was in the Czech Republic on a two-day visit, the highest-placed US official to visit the country in nine years. Although the visit had been labelled as private, the US House Speaker had a packed agenda of meetings with Czech politicians and he was the first foreign official ever to address a session of the Czech Chamber of Deputies. Daniela Lazarová from Radio Prague spoke with our Senior Researcher Jan Hornát and asked him to comment on the significance of this visit.
