Tchéquie — Dossier militaire

MBB · 55/100 — La note Magna est notre composite 0–100 de la puissance nationale structurelle — cinq dimensions, plus de 100 indicateurs. C'est l'évaluation propre du Bureau, pas un miroir des chiffres de la Banque mondiale ou de la CIA.

Momentum 0 — Momentum trimestriel : la lecture du Bureau sur la trajectoire du pays au dernier trimestre, de −10 (dégradation rapide) à +10 (accélération).

Peu de mouvement en juillet-septembre 2026 : ni crise, ni aubaine. Le trimestre a simplement confirmé le cap du pays.

Des forces plus profondes — les flux commerciaux, la stabilité régionale, la solidité institutionnelle — décideront de la trajectoire ; trois mois le font rarement.
