European Parliament Considers Banning Russian Media
The European Parliament is weighing a ban on Russian media outlets, such as Sputnik and RT, from its networks.
Leaders of political groups have expressed concern that this move could set a precedent for restricting media in the European Parliament.
- The EU sanctioned Russian media in 2022 after Moscow's invasion of Ukraine.
- Despite this, many websites hosting Russian broadcasters' content remain accessible.
The request to make "Russian propaganda websites under EU sanctions" inaccessible on Parliament's IT infrastructure was made by the right-wing European Conservatives and Reformists.
Latvian MEP Rihards Kols is leading the effort to block access to RT, Sputnik, and other Russian media outlets across all Parliament devices and networks.
