Britské listy Interview 714. What state subsidies do the Czech oligarchs Křetínský and Tykač receive?

Britské listy editor Albín Sybera talks to Radek Kubala from the Re-set organization, which has just published a shocking analysis of the enormous subsidies Czech oligarchs receive from state funds that were originally intended for completely different purposes. Radek Kubala concludes the interview with this summary: "There are democracies with oligarchies, with such influential groups that are able to bend the rules in their favor, able to divert key money flows to themselves. Here we have some subsidy programs, such as the Modernization Fund, which are supposed to serve some ideal democratization of the energy sector. To restore health, to reduce emissions. But large companies are able to disrupt the process in such a way that they suck most of it out for themselves. So, in my opinion, this is the key issue today, and it is a dispute that I think defines the present era, even though it is often not described that way in the political environment, because the struggle looks like a dispute between the nationalist far right and some liberal practice, but that is not what the dispute is about. Behind both groups are oligarchs, just of a different type. And in reality, the dispute of our future is between civil society and democracy and oligarchy."More relevant material: https://re-set.cz/download/cerni_pasazeri_final.pdfhttps://www.intellinews.com/northwest-bohemia-hopes-transition-to-clean-energy-might-allow-it-to-finally-catch-up-with-rest-of-czechia-338543/?source=czech-republichttps://blisty.cz/art/120659-severozapadni-cechy-doufaji-ze-prechod-na-cistou-energii-jim-umozni-konecne-dohnat-zbytek-ceska.htmlComplete English translation of this interview:
