• Latvia suspended rebroadcasting of the Russia’s TV channel “Rossiya RTR” in Latvia for six months

The National Council on Electronic Mass Media (NCEMM) suspended rebroadcasting of the Russia’s TV channel “Rossiya RTR” in Latvia for six months due to repeated violations of the Law on Electronic Mass Media and the EU Audiovisual Media Services Directive.
