Czechs Plan $14 Billion Deficit With Bigger Spending on Defense

The Czech government is proposing to increase the state budget deficit next year as the fiscally-conservative administration plans to boost spending on defense and a major energy project.
The budget draft has a shortfall of 286 billion koruna ($13.7 billion), about 19% more than the limit approved for this year, the Finance Ministry in Prague said on Sunday. The first deficit increase after four years of austerity policies is a result of additional expenditure of 49 billion koruna on defense and preparations for the construction of two nuclear reactors.
