Conservative euroskeptic and often controversial Czech Republic President Vaclav Klaus is condemning a letter signed by 13 ambassadors supporting an upcoming gay pride event.
"I can't imagine any Czech ambassador daring to interfere by a petition with the internal political discussion in any democratic country in the world," Klaus said.
Last week Klaus defended his deputy Petr Hajek for saying Saturday's Prague Pride is not a display of homosexuality but homosexualism...and that he is afraid of it.
The joint statement of support was issued by the reps of Austria, Belgium, Britain, Canada, Denmark, Estonia, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA.
