Věra Jourová @VeraJourova@respublicae.eu

In 🇨🇿 today for the #EasternPartnership Media Conference.
More than ever, the role of independent media in these societies is paramount. 🇪🇺 addresses these challenges of 🇺🇦 media:
🔹 safety of journalists
🔹 struggle for economic survival
🔹 flood of Kremlin's #disinformation

@JHahnEU @VDombrovskis @dreynders @EU_Commission We have agreed with 🇭🇺 in the national plan on a reform path by adding those milestones. We will monitor their implementation carefully.

It shows that we can make a difference if we use the tools at our disposal in a coherent way and in synergy.

@JHahnEU @VDombrovskis @dreynders @EU_Commission We also decided to endorse Hungary’s Recovery and Resilience Plan.
The national plan includes 27 super milestones which have to be fully implemented before any money is disbursed, including remedial measures under the Conditionality Regulation procedure. https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_22_7273

Today, we gave an assessment of 🇭🇺’s progress under the #RuleOfLaw Conditionality Regulation.
We maintain our proposal to suspend 65% of the commitments for three operational programmes under the cohesion policy, amounting to €7.5 bio. Now, the decision is up to the Council.

👏Good to have at last a deal on the e-evidence, to strengthen cross-border access for criminal investigations.
Criminals use fast & cutting-edge technology to operate. We need to equip law enforcement authorities w/ 21st century methods to tackle crime.

Thank you Minister Kairys for your support for the #MediaFreedomAct and your leadership in fighting 🇷🇺 propaganda. We agreed it’s crucial to do more to ensure full implementation of current sanctions and upgrade our action.
We also need to provide information in 🇷🇺 to 🇷🇺 people.

Pleased with strong support of Ministers for the #MediaFreedomAct today @EUCouncil.

There’s common understanding that this proposal is very important for both our democracy and single market.

@EU2022_CZ has made good progress. It paves the way for a general approach #EU2023SE

Met 🇸🇪 Minister of Culture Parisa Liljestrand ahead of #EYCS @EUCouncil.
Thank you for the support & very constructive approach on the #MediaFreedomAct; Sweden’s role as the next Presidency of the EU will be pivotal.
We also need to progress on transparency of political ads.

Thank you @PiaAhrenkilde for inviting me to speak to Heads of Representations of the @EU_Commission in the Member States. The Representations are our ears, eyes and voices on the ground.
Thank you very much for the job you are doing in these challenging times.

With the organisers of the European citizens’ initiative ‘Save Bees and Farmers,’ we discussed their objectives
🔹gradually phase out synthetic pesticides
🔹restore biodiversity
🔹support farmers in the transition
Best way to see participatory #democracy work in practice.

Thanks to everyone at 2022 #EUAccessCity Award Ceremony for remarkable efforts to make cities more accessible!
 
Inspiring to see so many cities across the EU committed to facilitating daily tasks for persons with disabilities.
#Accessibility and autonomy bring benefits for all.

The times we live in, with a war in Europe, remind us of the importance of the work of media.

There is a strong link between media and fair elections, and #democracy more broadly.

Thank you for the discussion at #AJBruxelles. We need the Media Freedom Act.

We strongly condemn all forms of #ViolenceAgainstWomen & girls. We will continue to support civil society, women rights organisations and human rights defenders demanding accountability.

Dnes je Black Friday a jsme ráda, že spotřebitelé jsou zase o něco více chráněni.
Česká novela zákona o ochraně spotřebitele, která implementuje ev. pravidla, která jsem navrhla,  zakazuje mimo jiné
🔹zveřejňováni falešných spotřebitelských recenzí
🔹fiktivní slevy

I am concerned about the news of firing of a vast amount of staff of Twitter in Europe. If you want to effectively detect and take action against #disinformation & propaganda, this requires resources. Especially in the context of 🇷🇺 disinformation warfare.
