Prague city centre looks like a mini-european union this Friday, as the Czech Republic has invited all 25 current and imminent member states to set up stands in a sort of european market place.
Fifteen years ago the crowds of the Velvet revolution signalled the end of communism in the then Czechoslovakia, but the Czech Republic's Prime Minister Vladimir Spidla says midnight tonight would mark the real end of the soviet communist bloc. "It's the end of a long voyage begun in 1968 ", he added, referring to that year's liberal reforms, crushed by Russian tanks.
