Czech PM resigns, to stay on until government in place
None
Czech President Vaclav Klaus accepted the resignation of caretaker Prime Minister Jan Fischer on Friday but asked him to stay on until a new cabinet takes power following a May election.
The resignation, required by law, came after the opening session of the new lower house this week and allows Klaus to appoint a new prime minister, which will almost certainly be right-wing Civic Democrat Petr Necas. (Reuters)
