Czech president says his country plans to move embassy to Jerusalem
Czech President Milos Zeman says his country plans to move its embassy to Jerusalem.
The comment comes at an event hosted by the Israeli embassy in the Czech Republic in honor of Israel’s Independence Day.
According to Zeman, the move from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem will take place in three stages, the first beginning next month with the opening of an honorary consulate in Israel’s capital.
The second stage, he says, is the move of the Czech cultural, economic and tourism center to Jerusalem. The embassy would move in the third stage, he says, without specifying a time frame for the final step.
