00:03Czy w tym roku jest nie?
00:04Czy w tym roku będzie wyrzuciło się na wyrzucianie?
00:06Właśnie to nie.
00:08Ale wyrzuciania falsych w tym nie są jeszcze w porządku.
00:12Zdjęcie.
00:32To było Florian Philippot, president
00:35of the French Nationalist Patriots Party,
00:38no seats in parliament but a huge social media base.
00:41He's talking about the European Democracy Shield,
00:44which has drummed up significant talk on social media
00:48ahead of next week's EU plenary.
00:50It's a broad plan to safeguard democracy
00:53and fight foreign interference and disinformation,
00:56partly by boosting its network
00:58of European fact-checkers working with social media platforms.
01:02So why are your skeptics latching onto it?
01:06One of the biggest doubts is how far should the EU
01:09go in monitoring information while at the same time
01:12protecting freedom of speech and pluralism?
01:15However, when it comes to national elections,
01:17the EU has no mandate to intervene,
01:20as it stressed after the invalidation of the first round
01:23of Romania's 2024 presidential election.
01:26The decision was taken by Romania's constitutional court
01:30after the intelligence services claimed that Russia engaged
01:34in a massive TikTok campaign to sway public opinion
01:38in favor of an independent far-right candidate.
01:41It was a controversial and critical decision for sure,
01:44but ultimately it's set within Romania, not Brussels.
