Summary/Abstract: Czechia’s presidency of the Visegrad Group (V4), which began on 1 July, comes amid the biggest crisis in the functioning of this format in years. In the face of clear differences in reaction to the Russia-Ukraine war, the government of Petr Fiala proposes minimalist functioning of the V4. The Group is likely to focus on social cooperation, with low dynamics in other areas. Thus, the Czech presidency will resemble the previous Slovak one.
