Parlamentul European a adoptat „Scutul pentru Democrație” împotriva dezinformării

The European Parliament approved a report on the "Shield for Democracy" aimed at enhancing the EU's protection against disinformation and hybrid threats. The report identifies Russia as the main source of these threats, which include cyberattacks and misinformation campaigns. It proposes the establishment of a European Center for Democratic Resilience to coordinate efforts against manipulation and centralize existing EU tools. Additionally, the report calls for stricter sanctions against those facilitating disinformation and urges the European Commission to expedite investigations into online platform violations. It also highlights vulnerabilities in the European information space and suggests support for candidate countries facing Russian information warfare.
