: the war in Europe with Russia's aggression in Ukraine clearly shows us that democracies must unite to defend their values.

Media freedom is at the core of these values; without it, it is harder to have access to the truth.

Děkuji, 🇸🇰 ministryně kultury Natálie Milanová, za Vaši podporu evropského zákona o svobodě médií.
Slovensko se tvrdou a bolestnou zkušeností naučilo, jak důležité je podporovat svobodu tisku.
Zlepšení bezpečnosti a pracovního prostředí novinářů je zásadní.

Měli jsme u sebe neustále helmy a vesty pro případ, že by byl letecký poplach. My jsme mohli odjet, ale Ukrajinci musí dobojovat tu svoji spravedlivou válku.
