The Transnistrian leader rejected on Monday, October 3, the set of laws that aroused the discontent of journalists in the region because they limited the rights of official media outlets and could introduce censorship. The laws were returned to MPs for reexamination, according to novostipmr.com news agency from Tiraspol.

We should remind that the region’s MPs adopted this September a set of amendments referring to official media outlets: reduction of the journalists’ salary fund, change of the procedure of appointment and dismissal of editors-in-chief, restriction of official media’s access to events organized in the region, prohibition to use video and audio equipment.

Journalists from official radios and televisions in Transnistria sent an open letter to local authorities, expressing their disagreement with the new changes in the media legislation and asking for reexamination of the set of laws.
