EU voices solidarity with Czech Republic in feud with Russia

EU leaders expressed solidarity with the Czech Republic in its diplomatic dispute with Russia at an EU summit and supported the Czech reaction in a collective resolution last night. The diplomatic rift between Czechia and Russia flared up in mid-April. There was a well-founded suspicion that Russia's GRU secret intelligence service agents were involved in the Vrbetice blasts in 2014, in which two Czechs were killed. Russia has denied the allegations.
