https://english.radio.cz/former-czech-pm-asks-government-speak-volkswagen-about-future-skoda-8696405 Very interesting article. While I'm taking this with a pinch of salt as the comments were made by the ŠKODA trade union, things like "the chief strategist of Volkswagen, Michael Jost, “hates Škoda” and “is actively moving against it”. Several stories have also appeared in Czech media this year suggesting that the newly appointed head of Škoda Auto, Thomas Schäfer, has been tasked by Volkswagen to “cut Škoda’s wings“ and make it a cheaper car brand aimed at competing with Renault’s Dacia in developing markets" is pretty concerning.
