Winner of Czech presidential election, Pavel, thanks supporters

Global News published this video item, entitled “Winner of Czech presidential election, Pavel, thanks supporters” – below is their description.

Czech presidential candidate Petr Pavel took the stage at his campaign headquarters to thank supporters on Saturday after results showed he held an unbeatable lead over billionaire businessman and former prime minister Andrej Babis.

Pavel, a 61-year-old retired general running for office for the first time, had campaigned as an independent and gained the backing of the centre-right government which ousted Babis from power in a 2021 parliamentary election.

Meanwhile, Andrej Babis accepted defeat and congratulated Pavel on his victory in a speech to supporters after nearly all votes in the election had been counted.

In economics, inflation refers to a general progressive increase in prices of goods and services in an economy. When the general price level rises, each unit of currency buys fewer goods and services; consequently, inflation corresponds to a reduction in the purchasing power of money.
