ČRo | Czech Republic abstains in the final vote on the migration pact

"Partial changes have occurred after negotiations with MEPs, it happens and it is common. For example, some deadlines have been shortened. But that is how it works, compromises are made. The question is always whether the compromise is acceptable or not. The Ministry of the Interior has assessed this by abstaining from the vote. From my point of view, however, the most important Czech requirements were preserved. In particular, the possibility to choose the form of assistance and not to be forced under any circumstances to relocate asylum seekers if the Czech Republic does not wish to do so."
