President has opened the event with a welcome speech, where he presented Jan Purkrábek an economist who has extensive experience in public-private corporate finance and treasury, to be minister of finance. Purkrabek's main aim is to maintain the basic idea on which Liberland has been established - no collection of taxes. "I like the thought of people paying voluntarily the taxes in the amount they themselves chose to" stated Jan.

Ministry of interior was assigned to Ondřej Příhonský, an expert on international relations and security issues, who strives to reach agreement with Croatia so that the local police wouldnt impede the settlement of the island.

"My main aim is to strengthen our representative offices across the world and turn them into a strong team working for Liberland" she claimed. Liberland has, according to Chlumská, representatives in more than 60 countries across the world. Usually these people are already connceted to local governments or diplomatic rounds.
