04.03.2022
The National Broadcasting Council in coordination with the Government Plenipotentiary for Cyber Security Janusz Cieszyński, is urgently conducting a verification of all Russian and Belarusian TV programs distributed in Poland.
The programs are checked for dangerous disinformation activities and content threatening the security and defense of the state.
Decisions on these matters are pending.
By deleting these programs from the register, the NBC contributes to EU-wide efforts to prevent the spread of propaganda, manipulation and disinformation: https://www.gov.pl/web/krrit/rada-unii-europejskiej-zawiesila-rosyjskie-programy-telewizyjne
