Un...believable. As the Romanian playwright Caragiale would have said: European diplomacy is sublime....apart from the small flaw of being inexistent. Well done, EU leaders, on pursuing peace by escalating the propaganda & building civilisation by chest beating

[Laëtitia Sédou @letysedou]

more of the same. It becomes difficult to claim these are "misunderstandings". Many speeches of @JosepBorrellF
reflect this "eurocentric' supremacy he claims he is fighting. Blindness or cynicism?

1/3 of Russian gas is still exported through Ukraine, at prices up to 10 times higher than before Putin's invasion. The Ukrainian government collects transit fees and enables the Russian government to fund this massacre #stopthewar https://t.co/ETsS0f6oTE

[Gas TSO of Ukraine 🇺🇦 @GasTSOua]

Our intention is to continue gas transit to Europe. We do not intend to use energy as a weapon. #Ukraine does not use gas transit as leverage.

Ricardo Guttierez, the president of the European Federation of Journalists stated correctly in my view that the ban of Russian media in the EU is 'a victory for Putin'. It runs counter to #FreedomOfSpeech and to the values of #dialogue and #peace that the EU should represent.

[Centre for Media Pluralism and Media Freedom @EUI_CMPF]

@Molenews1 puts fwd an extremely critical viewpoint on the measures: not only do they constitute arbitrary state censorship, but they are also ineffective & counterproductive: a quick Google search provides a way around, & the followers of those media will reinforce their beliefs

[Centre for Media Pluralism and Media Freedom @EUI_CMPF]

Promoting quality journalism, safeguarding journalists' safety, transparency, and media literacy: the best way to tackle disinformation is to nurture a healthy media ecosystem in Europe, not censorship, concludes @Molenews1

[Centre for Media Pluralism and Media Freedom @EUI_CMPF]

.@EPirkova warns about the lack of clear guidance on how online platforms would implement the ban.

A real risk: general monitoring of user-generated content by digital platforms w/ automated tools which would be unable to properly distinguish and safeguard journalistic content.

[Rasmus Kleis Nielsen @rasmus_kleis]

"I’m not going to shed a tear for the despicable RT and Sputnik but the EU must not itself undermine the rule of law, not least because a win in the General Court would hand Russia a valuable propaganda victory."
