Prime Minister Andrej Babiš attended a reception marking the 80th anniversary of the Italian Republic. Italy celebrates this important national holiday every year on June 2, commemorating the 1946 referendum in which Italians voted to abolish the monarchy and establish a republic. In 2026, the country marked the 80th anniversary of this historic event.
During the celebration, Babiš praised the strong and longstanding relationship between the Czech Republic and Italy. He highlighted the shared values of both nations, including respect for tradition, a commitment to practical solutions, and support for a strong and competitive Europe.
