The event will be held under the auspices of Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka in the new building of the National Museum in Prague that accomodated RFE/RL offices in the period 1995 – 2009.  Minister Zaorálek will open the reception together with US Ambassador Andrew Schapiro.

MFA has long been a supporter of RFE/RL. Two joint projects – Václav Havel Journalism Fellowship for youg professionals from the Eastern Partnership countries and Russia and Jiří Dienstbier Journalism Fellowship for the Western Balkans countries– are good examples of our cooperation.
