People around the country on Wednesday paid homage to the victims of communism. The day of remembrance coincides with the anniversary of the execution of politician Milada Horáková after a show trial on June 27, 1950. At a ceremony commemorating Horáková, the widow of the late president Václav Havel, Dagmar, said it was a sad paradox that on the day of remembrance of the victims of communism President Zeman had appointed a government that would have to rely on support from the Communist Party.
