When the "referendums" to join Russia were done in the occupied parts of Ukraine. Czech Republic has decided to organise a similar one on Kaliningrad. It turns out they want to be a part of Czech Republic. Historically they have belonged to the Kingdom of Bohemia and the population wants those times back. Kaliningrad has been renamed to its real name - Královec. Thanis to this exclave landlocked Czech Republic now has sea access. And our Polish friens are now in a Czechia sandwich. Everybody is happy about bringing Kralovec back to the warm embrace if Czechia. Tourism is booming and the Czech goverment is subsidizing the travel industry there. You too can visit Královec. https://visitkralovec.cz/#news

/s (obviously) In Czech Republic this has become a meme where even news stations, big companies and politicians participate. Fun part is Russian propaganda used this to paint a picture of hostile intentions of Czechia.
