Pavel known as the ”general” is based except his past being pretty opportunistic with an communist party membership to advance his military career but he apologized for it and has since the fall of the communist regime been a staunch pro-nato, pro-EU general with an emphasis on law and order and liberal values. So I obviously want him to beat Babis who is a kleptocrat, eurosceptic and similar to Zeman, but Babis honestly had an impressive first round result due to the allegations of financial fraud getting anulled in court. Meanwhile Nerudova flopped due to poor debates and the plagierazing scandal in the university she was in charge of. Pavel will be a good president as he has great relations with West and the presidents main responsibility is foreign policy, as well as most likely appointing neutral judges and techoncrats for the central bank unlike Zeman who was pro-Russian and used presidency for his own agenda.
hmmm out of touch billionaire or war mongerer…..damn, is america running this place?
Corrupt populist billionaire and owner of many agro businesses in Czechia that blamed everything on opposition when he had government and now blames everything on current one. Huge friend with Orban, former member of communist state security (basically their gestapo) and voted by majority of seniors, because he gave them money multiple times (especially before elections) when state debt was already high (and blames inflation on current government).
General is calm, representative, came clear with [his history in communist army in previous regime](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petr_Pavel#Education), knows how NATO works.. Babiš knows only how to blame everyone around him and act like spoiled kid.
I assume few people who didn’t vote for Babiš in first round will vote for him in second round.
Speech of Babiš after the results of the first round was one of the most disgusting I have ever seen. The next 2 weeks will be ugly.
should be noted for foreigners: The headline is in fact talking about two different people, the billionaire and the ex-nato general

How did Babis have a late surge, seriously….
I hope Pavel wins.
