(ANSA) - BRUXELLES, SEPTEMBER 7 - The third edition of the
EU-Western Balkans Media Days will be held in Podgorica,
Montenegro, on 12th and 13th September. The event was launched
in 2017 by the European Commission. It aims to ensure that media
freedom remains a priority while tackling the complexity of
pressing political, economic and social issues that the region
of the Western Balkans experiences at present.
This year's edition will also address challenges linked to the
increasing manipulation of the information space and, for the
first time, will also involve political representatives of the
region in charge of information and media for a 'Policy meets
media' discussion.
The EU enlargement commissioner, Johannes Hahn, will attend and
will open the conference on Thursday 12th September, along with
the Montenegrin president, Dusko Markovic.(ANSA).
