1988
Thanks to friends, VH makes his first public appearances in 19 years at a folk festival in Lipnice nad Sázavou. Then on 10 December when he gives a speech on Prague's Škroupovo square at the first (and only) legally permitted demonstration in support of Human Rights Day. Throughout the year, VH attends meetings with foreign politicians and diplomats (including among others French President François Mitterrand) as part of the Charter 77 movement.
