At a press conference Kuchtova acquainted journalists with her idea of "green democratic" politics. Kuchtova, who has been more and more critical of the current party leadership over the past weeks said Bursik and his people have deviated from the SZ programme. She recalled the party's agreement with the treaty on a U.S.
radar base on Czech soil, the introduction of regulatory fees in health care and the transformation of health care facilities into joint-stock companies. Kuchtova said her idea of the SZ is not left-orientated. "The Green Party is a centrist party that tables new green topics, and it is a possible coalition partner for both the [current senior government Czech Greens leader insists on no nuke option ...

Civic Democrats] ODS and [the senior opposition Socail Democrats] CSSD, and also of course the [junior government Christian Democrats] KDU-CSL," Kuchtova said. She said Bursik takes an autocratic attitude to solving problems in the party. She demonstrated it on the secret preparation of new party statutes for the congress as well as the demand that the congress confirm a group of new members of the party presidium he proposed. "Green politics means agreement, negotiating about the programme, negotiating about the statutes, green politics means respect for the fact that someone has a different opinion, and yet he/she can be in party bodies with me," Kuchtova said. Kuchtova criticised the swelling number of party organisations ahead of the forthcoming congress. She said they are often founded by people from Prague who have contact to Bursik's Environment Ministry. Sometimes are they founded by people who are still listed as members of the Freedom Union on its Internet pages.
