Eleven European nations—including Poland, Latvia, Estonia, and Scandinavia—pressed the European Commission to tighten and harmonize visa restrictions for Russian citizens, citing inconsistent enforcement across the Schengen zone. The Commission pledged new measures for 2026, though visa policy remains under individual member-state control. France, Italy, and Spain continue issuing the majority of permits (collectively ~440,000 in 2025), drawing criticism for lax implementation despite recommendations to prioritize essential travel only.

European Union diplomats have begun developing sanctions measures against Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir following a video showing him waving an Israeli flag over detained international activists with bound hands. The discussions, initiated in early June, face significant hurdles as unanimous EU approval is required; Czechia has repeatedly blocked sanctions against specific Israeli officials, while France has already banned Ben-Gvir from entry and pledged to push for sanctions alongside Italy.

The Government Climate Policy Commissioner Filip Turek (for the Motorists) is already annoying not just the Prime Minister. According to Deník N sources, a large portion of his colleagues from his own parliamentary club want to get rid of him too.

Andrej Babiš has a reputation of a political predator who ruthlessly exploits smaller coalition partners. Half a year after the elections, the SPD is beginning to very forcefully address how not to be sidelined next to the dominant head of government and not end up forgotten.
