USTI NAD LABEM, Czech Republic (Reuters) - Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban backed his Czech counterpart Andrej Babis' re-election bid on Wednesday, making a display of the close ties between the two central European leaders who have supported each other in disputes with the EU.
The Czech Republic holds a parliamentary election on Oct. 8-9. Opinion polls put Babis' centrist ANO party ahead of rivals but some show him falling short of partners to form a majority government, which could hand power to a coalition between the main opposition centre-left and centre-right groups.
