Czech voters have chosen former General Petr Pavel, an ex-chairman of the NATO Military Committee, as their new president.
He was the clear winner in a two-day run-off vote, seeing off his populist challenger Andrej Babis.
The role of president in the Czech Republic is mostly ceremonial but still has influence in choosing ministers.
Pavel, who becomes the fourth president of the Czech Republic, is seen as supportive of Western military aid to Ukraine.
