Overview

• Final results show ANO on 34.5% and roughly 80 of 200 seats, with Spolu at about 23%, STAN near 11%, the Pirates around 9%, SPD 7.8% and Motorists 6.8%, as turnout approached 69%.
• Andrej Babiš says he prefers a one‑party government and plans talks with SPD and Motorists, while any cabinet would need to win a parliamentary confidence vote.
• He has pledged to scale back military support for Ukraine and to review the Czech‑led artillery ammunition initiative, while signaling help could continue via EU channels.
• Babiš co‑founded the hard‑right Patriots for Europe bloc with Hungary’s Viktor Orbán, yet he rejects leaving the EU or NATO and insists his movement is pro‑European and pro‑NATO.
• He remains under scrutiny over an EU subsidy fraud case and conflict‑of‑interest issues, as analysts flagged pro‑Russian propaganda on Czech‑language TikTok and EU officials pressed the platform to remove bot networks.
