Three-quarters of Czechs do not think the Czech Republic should give
more attention to the rights of the Roma minority, suggests a poll by
the STEM agency. Over two-thirds of respondents said they had a
"negative relationship" towards Romanies, while one third said they
would be completely opposed to having a Romany neighbour. Roma in the
Czech Republic complain of constant discrimination; they have higher
rates of unemployment and lower rates of education.
