Cum vrea Europa să-și protejeze democrația. România, dată exemplu în raportul Parlamentului European

The European Parliament is set to vote on a report aimed at enhancing the protection of democracy in Europe, particularly against foreign interference and disinformation campaigns. The report identifies Russia as the main external threat and highlights vulnerabilities exposed during Romania's 2024 presidential elections. Key proposals include establishing a European Center for Democratic Resilience to coordinate responses to manipulation campaigns and treating electoral infrastructure as critical infrastructure. The report also emphasizes the need for increased funding for electoral authorities and stricter regulations on online platforms, including transparency in content creator payments. Additionally, it calls for support for independent media and long-term assistance for neighboring countries like Moldova and Ukraine.
