Seems pointless for the Russians since Obama is going to throw the Czechs to the wolves anyways.

QuoteCzech Republic expels two Russian diplomats for alleged espionage
[18-08-2009 15:40 UTC] By Daniela Lazarová
The Czech Republic on Monday expelled two Russian diplomats for alleged espionage, provoking an angry reaction from Moscow. The move has put a further strain on bilateral relations already soured by US plans to build a radar base in the country as part of its missile defense shield.
The deputy military attaché of the Russian Embassy in Prague was ordered out of the country and another diplomat was advised not to return from holiday on suspicion that they worked for the Russian intelligence service. Officials in Prague were tight-lipped with neither the Intelligence Service, nor the Defense Ministry willing to comment. Citing unnamed sources, commercial TV NOVA reported that the Russian diplomats had allegedly tried to develop close ties with people from the Czech Defense Ministry and shown a particular interest in the planned construction of a US radar base on Czech soil. The plan, currently on hold pending a review by the Obama administration and due to stalled ratification by the Czech Parliament, has prompted an increase in Russian spying activity in the Czech Republic and attempts to influence the country against the radar. The first signs of this appeared in 2007 when the Czech Intelligence Service reported "a heightened activity of the Russian secret service in the country" saying that Russian agents had moved from a passive monitoring of the situation to active attempts to influence both officials and the public. In fact the intelligence service believes that of the 200 diplomats and employees working at the Russian embassy and consulates in Brno and Karlovy Vary up to two thirds are paid agents.
The Russian embassy in Prague has declined to comment on the reports but Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on Monday denounced the expulsions as "another provocation" from Prague and an official of the Russian Foreign Ministry told the Russian ITAR-TASS news agency the Czech decision would not help the development of friendly relations between the two countries. As expected, on Tuesday Moscow retaliated by expelling two Czech diplomats from the country.

I didn't think they were that crazy about them. They wanted the Patriot batteries not the stupid ABM shit.

The Czechs are okay. If the Russians took Poland, Hungary and the rest that would be nice.

The Czechs are pretty good for this. Though some of those Hungarians aren't bad either.
I think the Czechs might be the hottest people on earth. In Prague I was never more than 10 steps away from a pretty girl, and never more than 40 steps away from a jaw-droppingly beautiful one. Fantastic city.

Nifty.
I'd expect Russia and the US and the UK and France (at least) have spies in every major European capital.

Actually, the Czech Republic may be the only country on Earth that does not fall to the "Either Guys or Girls" curse. They have hot women (Slavic blood) and hot guys (Germanic blood) in a perfect mix. Some of the hottest gay porn is made in the Czech Republic, and from the reactions here I assume it applies to straight porn too. And they are open and tolerant about sexuality and everything related. They also do not seem to have a lot of the extreme right wing idiocy that plagues most of Eastern Europe, and are also not in a habit of invading anyone. They are like hobbits of Europe, if hobbits were more promiscuous and hotter. :P
I am biased when it comes to Poland, since I live here, but had I not, I would say - yeah, through Poles to the wolves and kick Poland out of the EU, but keep the lovely Czechs in. :D
Also, Prague Languish meet anyone? It's better than Krakow (for those who were to the Krakow Meet), and people from Euro/Pound/Dollar countries can probably still benefit from favourable exchange rates (Euro and Pound probably more than Dollar, which seems to be collapsing again :P).
I just hope they added more gay porn to hotel porn channels. When I was there last time I wrote that suggestion in, in a supposedly anonymous questionnaire they gave me at a hotel, and they wrote me back (via e-mail) thanking me for the suggestion and promising to take it into consideration. :blush:
That being said, I could settle for a bell boy. :P

Nah, the Czechs are somewhat hot, not massivly so though. When I was there I didn't notice too many knock outs.
From what I'm familiar with the Estonians are where its at.
The Romanians could be competitors too but I've never been there.
