The start of Russia's full-scale aggression against Ukraine further mobilized us — we banned a number of TV programs affiliated with the GAZPROM concern and adopted a strict law limiting the activities of the media financed by the governments of Russia and Belarus. We are open to sharing these experiences with our allies, as well as using their ideas and solutions", said Vadim Gasperskij, chairman of the Legal Department of the Commission for Radio and Television of the Republic of Lithuania.
 
The summit "Stop Disinformation and Russian Propaganda" is attended by representatives of institutions regulating the media market in seven countries of Central and Eastern Europe – Poland, Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Romania, and Hungary. The most important point of the event, organized on the initiative of the National Broadcasting Council, will be the signing of the "Warsaw Declaration on Combating Disinformation", defining the framework for cooperation between signatories in order to limit and disclose Kremlin's propaganda.
