The European Parliament has adopted a report advocating for a stronger European defense of democracy, emphasizing the need for enhanced measures against misinformation and foreign interference. The report calls for a clearer legal mandate and budget for the European Center for Democratic Resilience, which aims to coordinate responses to threats. It highlights the importance of protecting electoral processes and media freedom, with specific references to Romania's electoral challenges. Concerns about algorithm governance and potential censorship have been raised by some members, while others argue for a balanced approach to combat hybrid threats. The report reflects a growing recognition of democracy's defense as a security issue.
