The following are transcripts from the interview.

I think it's a very interesting initiative after studying these all the aspects. And we will be very happy if the central European country like the Czech Republic can take part more actively in this process.

I think today's world is very much globalized. And we need each other and we can complement many things together, so that we consider also this flight, the direct flight like one of the part of global initiative, One Belt One Road to very much increase the connectivity.

So that it is not only the flight but the Czech Republic is also known for traditional industry like transportation industry not only cars but also the planes.

So that also we are now in the discussion with Chinese counterparts, the state government authorities and also the provincial and private institutions about to make common approaches with Czech's small planes, up to 19 people, to be used in some remote parts of China.

I mean the provinces like Xinjiang, like Gansu, like Qinghai. They can perfectly use the Czech product to make the connectivity much more efficient.

So we are not just thinker or supporter. But we are trying to find our way, we are trying to find our place of when we can contribute and how we can contribute to this development.
