​Liberties’ press statement on the vote at the European Parliament on targeted political advertising.

Liberties, alongside 30 civil society organisation (CSOs), has co-signed a letter addressed to the Czech Presidency calling for a regulation on political advertising that delivers for democracy and fundamental rights.

Regulating political advertising is a highly contentious issue, and each EU country has its own sets of laws. But they have one thing in common: the clear (and growing) threat to free and fair elections posed by uneven, outdated advertising rules.
