On the question of the presence of national minorities in the Czech Republic
Sulitka, Andrej
The articles indicates the basic political starting points on the question of national minorities in the Czech Republic after 1989. The existing Act on Rights of Members of National Minorities (2001) does not provide an exhaustive list of national minorities and minority groups are considered those groups of citizens claiming a nationality other than Czech, which are historically present on the territory of the state, i.e. existing as a permanent part of the society. According to the amended version of the Statute of the Government Council for National Minorities, adopted by the Government in 2013, they are 14 minorities (Belarusian, Bulgarian, Croatian, Hungarian, German, Greek, Polish, Roma, Rusyn, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Ukrainian and Vietnamese).
