The South East Europe Media Organization (SEEMO) has expressed concern over the recently adopted Romanian National Defense Strategy. The network of editors, media executives and leading journalists in South East and Central Europe noted in a statement issued in Vienna on Wednesday that president of Romania initiated the making of the document which contained, among other things, serious allegations against the media. Romanian defense strategy media reference criticized The strategy described the media as a security threat and vulnerability for Romania due to alleged press campaigns aimed at spreading false information about the activity of state institutions. The National Defense Strategy has sparked reaction throughout Romania and from various international media organizations, said the SEEMO statement. "It is very alarming that the president of Romania, a member country of the European Union, has issued such a strategy laying out allegations against the media instead of defending freedom of speech and democracy," said SEEMO Secretary General Oliver Vujovic. "It is even more worrisome that the strategy has already been adopted. In a democratic society the media plays an important role by informing the public about matters of public interest. The National Defense Strategy poses a threat to freedom of speech and critical reporting. SEEMO strongly condemns the statements suggesting that the media is a security threat and vulnerability for Romania, and calls on the Romanian Parliament to respect the role of the media and reject the strategy accordingly," Vujovic concluded.
