Former Prime Minister Andrej Babis is working to form a government after staging a political comeback to win the biggest share of the vote in the Czech Republic’s parliamentary election this weekend.
Slovakian-born billionaire Babis did not achieve an overall majority, but won the election with pledges to end military aid to Ukraine and to put the needs of the Czech people first.
