๐จOur submission comes as @europarl.europa.eu parl.europa.eu condemns political pressure on LRT, incl a funding freeze & weakened leadership safeguards: actions that violate the European #MediaFreedom Act.

Rule of Law must hold strong.๐ช
Democracy needs strong public service media. And that starts with a robust rule of law.
๐กIn our submission to the rule of law report, we stress the need to safeguard media independence & pluralism, protect journalists & address AI risks.
