Slovak State Subsidizes Pro-Russian Website with Košice Connections

Share:

The Slovak government is providing subsidies to a pro-Russian website, according to reports. The publication has connections to Košice, Slovakia's second-largest city in the eastern part of the country, and its publisher expects to receive additional funding. The website's operations involve various contributors, with one figure named Garbár described as only an occasional correspondent by someone identified as Sopko. The state funding of media outlets with pro-Russian editorial positions raises questions about government media policy amid broader European concerns about Russian information influence.
