MPs propose Masin group, Koudelka, Zelenskiy for top Czech award

The six-member Masin brothers' anti-communist resistance group, counter-intelligence service (BIS) director Michal Koudelka and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy are among those the Czech lower house proposed to President Milos Zeman for the Order of the White Lion top state award today. In the past, Zeman repeatedly refused to promote Koudelka to the rank of general. As for Zelenskiy, Zeman said already in March that he had decided to meet the proposal to decorate him.
