With five days left to run before the second round of presidential elections, the two candidates, Miloš Zeman and Karel Schwarzenberg, have both launched attacks. Zeman has lashed out at the “Prince” for his Austrian wife, claiming that he aims “to defend the interests of ethnic Germans”. In response, Schwarzenberg has accused outgoing President Václav Klaus, who has voiced his support for Zeman, of planning to re-establish the same power system that allowed corruption to spread across the country between 2000 and 2010.
