“The Italian journalists’ union, at the initiative of its Campania branch, presented Julian #Assange with an FNSI membership card. The European Federation of Journalists (EFJ) passed on the initiative to its affiliates in Europe: 18 of them decided to follow the Italian example and grant Julian Assange membership (or honorary membership) of their organisations. The #EFJ and its affiliates once again call on the UK authorities to release Julian Assange.” Read more from the European Federation of Journalists.

i have already expressed my sceptical view both against the blocking of #media from #Russia as well as within #Russia more than 1 time. I stand for very generous #freedomofexpression and #pressfreedom worldwide.
And also legally, the ban on #RussiaToday and #Sputnik by the #EU is on thin ice, specifically in terms of #Europeanlaw.
#EFJ #journalist organisation general-secreatary shares this view.
