The Cabinet of Petr Fiala is the current government of the Czech Republic, appointed on 17 December 2021. Following elections in October 2021, President Miloš Zeman asked Petr Fiala, as the leader of the Spolu alliance, to form a new government.[1] On 17 November 2021 Fiala presented Zeman with the names of his proposed cabinet, and Zeman agreed to appoint Fiala as the new prime minister on 28 November 2021.[2]

Zeman met with all the ministerial nominees during the week following Fiala's appointment, expressing disagreement with the appointment of Jan Lipavský as foreign minister.[3][4] On 1 October 2024, prime minister Petr Fiala didn't accept Lipavský's resignation. Lipavský continues as foreign minister as independent, when he earlier left the Pirate party.[5]
