Comment Neelie (Kroes)

[...] This question of how we safeguard fundamental freedoms like media freedom and pluralism is not an easy one to answer: but it is vitally important and it is not going to go away. As the recent letter from four EU Foreign Ministers to President Barroso showed – some governments are concerned by the threats to our common values. I call on all governments in the EU to take this debate seriously in the interest of our citizens and ultimately in their own interests.
