PRAGUE, Aug 7 (Reuters) – The new Czech cabinet formed by
leftist allies of President Milos Zeman lost a parliamentary
vote of confidence on Wednesday, extending a standoff between
the president and the parliament that has lasted for nearly two
months.
The tight voting result – 93 in favour, 100 against and 7
not present – showed that no grouping in parliament commanded a
clear majority, raising chances parties will agree on the
parliament’s dissolution and an early election before the end of
the year.
