President Miloš Zeman handed over a prime minister to Prime Minister Andrej Babiš against the head of the Security Information Service, Michal Koudelka. “The material even has two phases, one brief, one more detailed, but basically the common denominator is the claim that Michal Koudelka is not a good manager,” the president said for Parliamentary letters.

The creation of material about Koudelka, which Zeman has long refused to promote to general, has been announced by the head of state before. It was prepared by the former head of BIS analyst Jiří Rom, who started working for the presidential office.

Koudelka’s term ends this summer, and Zeman advises the government not to leave him in office for another term. Zeman rejected criticism that he was looking for compromising materials on Koudelka.
–
“Compro material is a concept from the world of thought, which I do not share, because in that case any critical material could be called compro material,” added Zeman.

The president also rejected reports that he was planning a caretaker government led by CEZ chief Daniel Benes. They announced the List of News last week about the planned plan. “I am here to decide on a caretaker government, and I will not decide anything like that. I will wait until the election and appoint the winner of the election as prime minister, “said Zeman.
