European Parliament Considers Banning Russian Media
The European Parliament is weighing a ban on Russian media from its networks, specifically targeting websites like Sputnik and RT.
Leaders of political groups have expressed concern that this move could set a precedent for restricting media within the European Parliament.
- The EU sanctioned Russian media in 2022 after Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
- Despite this, many websites hosting Russian media content remain accessible.
- A request has been made to block access to RT, Sputnik, and other Russian media outlets on Parliament's IT infrastructure.
“Russian propaganda websites under EU sanctions” should be made inaccessible on Parliament’s IT infrastructure.
This move is led by Latvian MEP Rihards Kols and supported by the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists.
