Madeleine Albright: Given their own histories, I’m stunned by CEE states’ treatment of refugees

Having served as US secretary of state from 1997 to 2001, Madeleine
Albright ranks as one of the most accomplished of all Czech-Americans. I
got to speak to the Prague-born politician recently when she was special
guest at the Reality Czech evening in New York, organised by the Bohemian
Benevolent and Literary Association and the Václav Havel Library
Foundation to mark the centenary of the founding of Czechoslovakia. Our
conversation eventually turned to that landmark anniversary – but it
began with Secretary Albright’s recently published book Fascism: A
Warning.
