EANA, the European Alliance of News Agencies has expressed its disapproval of the current actions of the Slovenian government against its Slovenian member, STA.
In a statement, EANA makes clear that the latest pressure on the Slovenian national news agency makes it very difficult for the journalists there to work and to fulfill their public mission of correctly and timely informing the public and providing the Slovenian media with much needed and also much-appreciated content.
EANA underlines its disapproval of any action taken by the Slovenian government which would in any way limit the freedom of STA, and urges the Slovenian authorities to find a way in which normality would be restored.
