Sanctions against Voice of Europe – reasons
The Voice of Europe broadcasting platform, according to preliminary information from the Czech special services, could influence the results of the European elections.
Therefore, the Czech Republic put this media company on the “black list” at the end of March.
“Voice of Europe is also used to influence and actively spread disinformation and propaganda directed against the territorial integrity, independence, sovereignty, stability and security of Ukraine,” – government officials in Prague said at the time.
