Muslims Not Welcome In Czech Republic – Prime Minister Says

Prime Minister of Czech Republic,
Bohuslav Sobotka, has warned that
its government did not want a larger
Muslim presence in the country.
He, however, said on Tuesday in
Prague that even the country shared
Germany’s desire to stem the tide of
refugees from the Middle East, yet
the country had different views on
how to achieve such.
“We have no strong Muslim
community here, and to be honest,
we do not want a strong Muslim
community to become established
here,’’ he said.
Sobotka insisted that the Czech,
along with fellow Visegrad states,
Poland, Hungary and Slovakia, were
against a permanent refugee quota
system for European countries as
advocated by Merkel.
He said that the Visegrad states
believed it should be up to national
governments to decide how many
refugees to take in.
“The bottom line is that it is national
governments which must guarantee
the safety of their citizens.’
