The current condition of the media environment in Bulgaria, citizens' trust in media, professional standards in journalism, media financing models and asserting the independence of editorial policy have been discussed in Sofia by President Rumen Radev and Secretary General of Reporters Without Borders Christophe Deloire.
According to President Radev, Bulgaria's 111th place in the Press Freedom Index of Reporters Without Borders is alarming, because of the serious problems identified in media sphere, which in practice should support democracy. The lack of a comprehensive media law that sets standards is among the reasons for the current state of media environment in Bulgaria, the meeting indicated. According to the Bulgarian President, funding was a key issue in guaranteeing freedom, independence and pluralism in media, and added clear criteria were needed for access to European funding and their fair distribution.
