Proud to present this proposal today ↓

Historic vote today at European Parliament on the 1st-ever EU law to protect journalists and independence of the media #MediaFreedomAct
Independent media are essential to democracies. It’s the duty of democracies to protect them.
The Act is needed asap to counter attacks and threats.
European Commission I am happy to confirm Poland’s participation in the European Public Prosecutor’s Office.
