Alisha Kerns, a Member of the UK Parliament, stated that media freedom in Serbia is currently at a crossroads. She emphasized that the UK government should actively support Serbian journalists in their right to speak truthfully to authorities.
“The United Kingdom government should defend the right of Serbian journalists to speak truth to power as part of the Berlin Process—and take a strong stance against anyone seeking to undermine it,” Kerns wrote.
The statement comes ahead of the Berlin Process leaders’ summit, scheduled for October 22 in London, where regional cooperation and support for democratic institutions are expected to be key topics.
