She emphasized that the previously adopted law on combating disinformation is the sovereign right of the country to decide how to protect its information space.

“We don’t want to stifle the media, we want everyone to play by the rules of the law, we don’t want to allow misinformation and manipulation,” RIA Novosti quotes Sandu.

This is how she answered the question about how the media with “Kremlin funding” will work in the country.

Sandu added that there would be no problems provided that the media could prove the legitimacy of their funding.

Earlier, the head of state signed a law banning news programs from Russia.

On April 19, Moldovan President Maia Sandu approved a ban on the use of the St. George ribbon, previously approved by parliament.
