# Cabinet of Petr Fiala

The Cabinet of Petr Fiala is the current government of the Czech Republic, appointed on 17 December 2021. Following elections in October 2021, President Miloš Zeman asked Petr Fiala, as the leader of the Spolu alliance, to form a new government. On 17 November 2021 Fiala presented Zeman with the names of his proposed cabinet, and Zeman agreed to appoint Fiala as the new prime minister on 28 November 2021. Zeman met with all the ministerial nominees during the week following Fiala's appointment, expressing disagreement with the appointment of Jan Lipavský (Pirate Party) as foreign minister.
The cabinet of Petr Fiala repeatedly saw the lowest government popularity ratings in a decade according to Czech public opinion polls.
In September 2024 the cabinet experienced a serious crisis following extremely poor results for the government coalition parties in Czech regional and Senate elections. Fiala eventually sacked Ivan Bartoš, head of the coalition Pirate Party, who had been criticized for months over the poor implementation of the digitalization of construction permit procedures. In response, the Pirate Party left the coalition and other Pirate Party members offered their resignation. On 1 October 2024, Fiala refused to accept the resignation of Jan Lipavský, who remained foreign minister as an independent, having left the Pirate party.
