Overview
- ANO leader Andrej Babiš submitted his cabinet list to President Petr Pavel as he moves to form a majority government with SPD and the Motorists.
- The president reiterated formal objections to Motorists figure Filip Turek, now tapped for environment minister after an earlier foreign‑affairs pitch.
- Turek is being investigated following a complaint alleging domestic violence and rape, while a separate probe over a Nazi salute and memorabilia was closed.
- Pavel will hold individual consultations with all nominees from November 28 to December 10 and has constitutional latitude to refuse appointments.
- Pavel also pressed Babiš to resolve Agrofert conflict‑of‑interest concerns before naming him premier, as other picks such as Petr Macinka, Oto Klempíř and Martin Šebestyán drew public and sectoral pushback.
