The people of Ukraine will be able to watch the TV channel Euronews in the Ukrainian language, despite the revocation of the license, said Vice-President of the Supervisory Board of Euronews Pyotr Fyodorov.
The national Council for television and radio broadcasting of Ukraine deprived license Ukrainian version of Euronews TV channel at the request of the National television company of Ukraine (NTCU), which carries out broadcasting.
Fedorov explained that all that can make national Council for television and radio broadcasting, is to impose a ban on their channels and cable operators to broadcast the Ukrainian version within their country, but not in forces of the National Council to close the Ukrainian version in Lyon, it's beyond their authority and capability ".
"so, the story is about political censorship decision, because in the 1st review of the messenger of the national Council sounded these words: we can't control the content that is created in Lyon. Of course they don't have the opportunity, like Moscow, Paris, because Euronews is an independent, multi-language International news service, " said Fedorov.
"Anyone who wishes to buy a satellite dish that can receive Ukrainian version that continues to be done in Lyon, nothing will happen, despite the decisions of the National Council. Of course, even easier to watch Euronews on the Internet. Of course, as long as long as censorship of Ukrainian authorities will not reach a worldwide network and somehow it will block", He added.
He noticed that in Lyon are not the enemies of Ukraine, and the patriots who are trying to convey the point of view of the country." Fyodorov also said that it would be " monstrous outrage if adopted any measures regarding Euronews correspondent who work in Ukraine."
"in the 21st century prohibitive, censorship measures is a reflection of the political panic. To block people's access to the information they want to see is impossible, " He said.
