The UNESCO/ICOMOS report has been sent to the Czech Culture Ministry and the City of Prague. Culture Minister Lubomir Zaoralek pointed out that Prague is not on the list of endangered monuments yet. He said negotiations with UNESCO were under way and the Czech Republic. UNESCO will be waiting how we are going to react. It depends on how we will cope with their reservations, further assessments will take place, Zaoralek said on Thursday, October 21, 2019. (CTK Photo/Michaela Rihova)
