Czech President Appoints Babis' Government

The President of the Czech Republic, Petr Pavel, has appointed a new government led by Andrej Babis.

Babis is a billionaire and the leader of the ANO party, which won the recent election.

His government includes two smaller parties: the far-right SPD, which is anti-European Union and pro-Russian, and the Motorists for Themselves party, which opposes the EU's climate policies.

Babis is returning to power after four years in opposition.

This means he will now be in charge of the country again, working with his coalition partners to run the government.
