Rudé právo ("Red Law") was the central organ of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia .
It was founded after the clashes between the Social Democrats and the Communists. Its first edition appeared on September 21, 1920. The long-time editor-in-chief was Oldřich Švestka .
During the time of socialist Czechoslovakia it was the newspaper for the Czech part; the Slovak counterpart was Pravda ("truth").
