RADAR U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice confirmed she will travel to Prague in July to sign the two U.S.–Czech treaties on the installation of the radar base, according to Foreign Affairs Minister Karel Schwarzenberg. The date is soon to be determined, the daily Právo reported June 10. The treaties — the main radar treaty and the SOFA treaty that will govern U.S. troops stationed at the base — will have to be ratified by Parliament.

WOLVES The Brno Zoo became one of the few in Europe to successfully breed arctic wolves when twin puppies were recently born, ČTK reported June 10. The offspring took zoo keepers by surprise when they emerged from a den built by their mother, and it is now believed they were born five weeks ago. The zoo is also home to 6-month-old polar bear twins named Bill and Tom.
U.S. TRAVEL The Czech Senate approved an agreement between the United States and the European Union June 4 requiring EU country airlines to provide passenger data to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, ČTK reported. Deputy Prime Minister Alexandr Vondra has previously said that the Czech Republic would be among the first group of new countries to join the U.S. visa waiver program.
