Mr Zeman angered many Czech citizens when he defended Russia's stance on
Ukraine, declaring the conflict there "a civil war between two groups of
Ukrainian citizens".
Though Moscow has long denied any direct involvement in the Ukraine crisis,
the EU, of which the Czech Republic is a member, has imposed sanctions on
Russia, saying it has supplied separatist rebels there with weapons and
Russian fighters.
The Czech president also used derogatory language when discussing Russian
protest group Pussy Riot in an expletive-filled interview earlier this month.
In October he shocked some when he said he wished to learned how China "
stabilised" its society.
In the run-up to Monday's celebrations, Mr Zeman said the 1989 student
protest had not triggered the Velvet Revolution.

just one of "any number of rallies" and he played down police brutality.
Mr Zeman still has the backing of many voters and his supporters were
scheduled to hold a rally on Monday.
Also on Monday, Czech Prime Minister Bohuslav Sobotka travelled to the US to
unveil a bust of Vaclav Havel in Congress. The former president died in
