The assembly will take place already this Saturday, November 11, and according to the party’s website, it will be opened by the chairwoman Markéta Pekarová Adamová with a speech. This will be followed by reports on the activities of the party’s presidency, on the activities of the executive committee and perhaps also on the party’s finances.

Afterwards, the Speaker of the Chamber of Deputies, Pekarová Adamová, will testify about her work, and party ministers will also have their “Ministerial window”.

The report on the activities of the parliamentary club and reports on the activities of senators and MEPs will also be on the agenda of the parliament.

Regarding the elections to the highest party positions, there is no mention of possible candidates on the TOP 09 website. However, the Novinky.cz server revealed some names.

While, according to this information, the current chairwoman Markéta Pekarová Adamová has no opponents and it is therefore very likely that she will defend the position and hold the party until the parliamentary elections, the fight for the next leadership position is not so clear.

The name of the current 1st Vice President Tomáš Czernin is inflected a lot. According to behind-the-scenes information, he should no longer defend this function. The current Minister of Health, Vlastimil Válek, and the Chairman of the Parliamentary Club, Jan Jakob, are said to be pushing for his post.

However, they can still run for rank-and-file vice presidents if they are not elected. They would have opponents in the fight for these positions according to the News to be the chairman of the Parliamentary Agriculture Committee, Michal Kučera, who is one of the four current vice-chairmen, and MPs Marek Ženíšek, Matěj Ondřej Havel and Ondřej Kolář.

“The MEP and deputy mayor of Prague Jiří Pospíšil and the chairman of the Karlovy Vary regional organization Lukáš Otys are also to be nominated. Czernin could also apply for the post of ordinary vice-chairman,” the article reads.

It would not be a big surprise then, even if an additional nomination for one of the mentioned posts, made directly during the assembly, or, on the contrary, the withdrawal of one of the candidates.

But let’s get back to those who are sure to compete for the top party positions on Saturday and get to know them through some of the information that their party website reveals about them.
