Council for Electronic Media sanctions media service providers for denying atrocities of war in Ukraine

The Council for Electronic Media (CEM) strongly disagrees with any suggestions related to the denial of the atrocities in Bucha. We have seen monstrous act of torture and murder of civilians and more than a year ago, on its own initiative, CEM addressed the issue about the media coverage of the events,” CEM's position on Ukraine says.

Since the start of the war in Ukraine, the Council for Electronic Media has carried out numerous observations of broadcasters' programmes on compliance with the Broadcasting Act. Administrative proceedings have already been initiated and financial penalties imposed on providers who deny the atrocities of the war.
