EU Commission Suspends Agrofert Payments for Six Months Over Babiš Conflict of Interest

The European Commission has suspended payments to Agrofert for six months, deeming Andrej Babiš's transfer of the company to the RSVP Trust insufficient to resolve his conflict of interest. This is a continuation of the long-running dispute over EU funds to Babiš-linked entities, but the explicit six-month suspension marks a concrete enforcement step. The decision could pressure the Czech government and affect EU fund disbursements.
