Czech politics after the 2025 elections: Who is in the parliament and what will happen next?
The new government of the Czech Republic, led by right-wing populist Prime Minister Andrej Babiš, was due to face a mandatory vote of confidence in parliament in January 2026. The vote took place amid statements about a possible review of the country’s foreign policy, in particular regarding the cessation of support for Ukraine and the curtailment of cooperation with the European Union . Discussions in the 200-seat lower house of parliament, the Chamber of Deputies of the Czech Republic, began on Tuesday, 13 January. To continue its work, the new administration had to obtain the support of a majority of deputies. Babiš’s coalition currently has 108 parliamentarians, which formally gives it the necessary majority. source: https://d15-a.sdn.cz/d_15/c_img_E_I/wUbBM8F.jpeg?fl=cro,0,41,1280,720%7Cres,1200,,1%7Cjpg,80,,1 Babiš’s coalition: Overview of parties source: https://www.reuters.com/world/czech-election-winner-babis-signs-coalition-deal-with-partners-2025-11-03/ ANO (ANO 2011)...
