The Russian Foreign Ministry reacted to the closure of Russian channels in Moldova

Moldova’s pro-Russian Party of Socialists called the decision to close Russian TV channels illegal and will appeal against it in court.

The Russian Foreign Ministry has accused official Chisinau of harassing Russia’s national minority after the decision to revoke broadcasting licenses from six TV channels that spread propaganda about the war in Ukraine, the Russian ministry said in a statement. .

“We consider this ban as an unprecedented act of political censorship, as an affront to the principle of media pluralism and a serious disregard for the right to freedom of access to information, where the political leadership of the Republic regularly declares its compliance. In Due to the unprecedented consequences of its implementation for the Russian-speaking part of the country’s population, we qualify it as well as a cynical violation of the rights of the national minority,” the Russian agency said.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation requests from the relevant international organizations “to provide an adequate assessment of what happened and take all appropriate measures to correct this unacceptable situation.”

Recall that on the evening of December 16, the Commission for Emergency Situations, which has been operating in Moldova since the beginning of the war with Ukraine, suspended the licenses of six TV channels. Among them: TV6, Orhei TV, Primul in Moldova, Accent TV, NTV Moldova and RTR Moldova.

According to the commission’s order, the decision to suspend the licenses was made to protect the national information space and avoid the risk of disinformation and attempts to manipulate public opinion. The channels are said to have spread false information when covering the war in Ukraine.

President Maia Sandu said that the protection of the national information space is an important step to prevent destabilization attempts launched by people under international sanctions.

Moldova’s pro-Russian Party of Socialists called the commission’s decision illegal and will appeal against it in court.
