Czech president's door "closed" for U.S. ambassador

“I’m afraid, after this statement the doors of the Prague Castle (presidential office and residence) are closed for Ambassador (Andrew) Schapiro,” Zeman told the Parlamentni Listy website on Saturday, RT reported.

“I cannot imagine a Czech ambassador in Washington giving advice to the U.S. president on where he should travel. I will not let any ambassador interfere with the program of my foreign trips," Zeman said.

Schapiro reacted by stating that "his door remains open for the Czech president."

A spokesman for Zeman clarified that while the president will not receive the ambassador for meetings and talks, he can still "without any problems" come to the Prague Castle for receptions and celebrations.
