Czech President Milos Zeman endorsed Donald Trump as the better choice in the U.S. election in a sharp contrast with the majority of European leaders and the prime minister of his own country.

“I will not interfere with U.S. internal affairs,” Zeman said in a video interview on iDnes news portal on Tuesday. “I am just saying that if I were an American citizen, I would vote for Donald Trump.”
