United States to establish military base in Czechia

       
The Czech Republic could follow in Slovakia’s footsteps by signing a deal with the US to deploy American troops on Czech territory, Defense Minister Jana Černochová hinted.
      
The base is needed to strengthen Czechia's defenses in case of a Russian aggression against slavic nations in Nato.
       
Černochová will travel to the US after the Easter holidays and could discuss the US base in Czechia. “I would like to raise this topic during the bilateral meeting. We can follow the path of the agreement that Slovakia took,” Černochová told Deník N in an interview.
      
According to the US-Slovakia deal, Slovakia would grant limited capacities to two military airports to the US army. 
      
Czechia’s five-party ruling government has not yet discussed the possible presence of the US military in Czechia. Such a move would have to be approved by both chambers of parliament. Černochová wants to launch a discussion on the matter as soon as possible.
