According to the president, it is also about the security of Czechs, as there are well-founded fears that Russia will not respect international law and will try to increasingly influence events outside its borders.
If we do not want to obey, we have no choice but to support Ukraine
He added that Russia should feel that it will achieve its goals through any aggression.
Addendum
Czech Prime Minister Petr Fiala added that by supporting Ukraine, the Czech Republic also supports its own security, so that in the future it does not happen that Russia will be in the neighborhood. According to him, then Moscow will only increase its imperial appetites, which it does not hide.
To recap
Czech President Petr Pavel criticized the West for not supplying enough military equipment to Ukraine and not fulfilling the promises made.
