TN.cz | Up to a third of Czech voters do not know the EU Commissioner Věra Jourová

Czech Commissioner Věra Jourová has been Vice-President of the European Commission for the past five years, as well as Commissioner for Values and Transparency. EUROPEUM Institute has assessed her tenure and popularity in the Czech Republic in cooperation with STEM. The results of the survey were presented to TN.cz by EUROPEUM analyst Vít Havelka.

Czechs generally know national politicians, which means that when they come to Brussels, their familiarity decreases, which is basically what happened to Ms Jourová, who gradually disappeared from the radar of Czech society.
