PRAGUE, Sept 19 (Reuters) - It is not realistic to expect that the Czech Republic will adopt the euro in 2010, central bank (CNB) chief Zdenek Tuma said on Tuesday.

The comment was in line with remarks in the past days by the new right-wing government officials that entry would likely be delayed.

Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek, speaking to reporters at a joint news conference with Tuma, said the ambition to join the euro remained but he would not dare to set an entry date.
