Babiš linked Vrbětice and Vondra in the "pikoška". "Don't take him in your mouth," Kupka raged.

Czech Prime Minister Andrej Babiš criticized former Defense Minister Alexander Vondra regarding the 2014 Vrbětice munitions depot explosion, attributing responsibility to ODS. This sparked backlash from ODS leader Martin Kupka, who defended Vondra and condemned Babiš's remarks as demagoguery. Babiš's comments omitted the involvement of Russian agents, which had previously led to diplomatic tensions. Vondra clarified that he was not responsible for the depot's management, as it was transferred to a state enterprise before his tenure. Kupka emphasized Vondra's contributions to democracy, contrasting them with Babiš's past as a Communist Party member.
