"Break? Let her take menopause," Ševčík insulted the MP. He also angered Babiš, Macinka chimed in.
The controversial remark by MP Miroslav Ševčík regarding menopause sparked criticism from both the opposition and Prime Minister Andrej Babiš. During parliamentary discussions, Babiš condemned the behavior, emphasizing that such rudeness is unacceptable in the assembly. Ševčík defended his statement, claiming it was not directed at anyone and that the term menopause is not vulgar. The incident escalated when STAN leader Vít Rakušan accused Ševčík of shouting at his colleague Michaela Šebelová, leading to calls for an apology. Foreign Minister Petr Macinka commented on the situation, expressing hope that it wouldn't affect Šebelová's performance in parliament.
