RRI’s Eugen Cojocariu talked to Sabine Verheyen, chair of the Committee on Culture and Education and rapporteur on the European Media Freedom Act, adopted in March by the European Parliament, about what the new legislation means for the public media and the private press sector in Europe.

Sabine Verheyen also discussed the means for EU institutions to counter disinformation in the coming elections for the European Parliament, so as to prevent prospective interference from third countries.

Convincing the young generations to vote is also important, Sabine Verheyen says, and in this respect European youth need more information coming from EU institutions.
