Increased security cooperation sought with France, says PM Sobotka

Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka said on Monday that the Czech Republic and France should boost their cooperation to counter the threat of terrorism. Sobotka was speaking after visiting the French embassy in Prague and signing the book of condolence for the victims of the attack on the satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo and other following attacks in and around Paris. Sobotka said he was sure increased security for citizens could be offered without limiting their freedom of movement and other basic liberties.
