Two-time Stanley Cup winner Dominik Hasek has failed to gain entry into the Czech Senate. The relevant information is confirmed by Globe24.cz.
The athlete, known for his Russophobic sentiments, failed to make it to the second round, having come from the centre-right TOP 09 party. In his constituency in the municipality of Benesov, he received 20.28% of the votes and only came third.
EADaily Remember that on July 10, during a speech in the European Parliament, Hasek said that Russian sports have no place in international competitions. And this is not the first initiative that the athlete is known for. He previously called on the heads of the National Hockey League to resign due to their excessive loyalty to Russia.
