lpv:translated text	"I voted in favour of this resolution because regional cooperation and good neighbourly relations are essential for the process of European integration and for ensuring security and stability in the region. As free, unbiased, strong and independent media, in line with international media standards, guaranteeing freedom of speech and access to information, are a cornerstone of democracy, the European Parliament calls on the government to establish an appropriate legal framework and to ensure its effective implementation, including putting an end to defamation as a criminal offence. Unfortunately, there continues to be political interference in the work of the media, and the European Parliament urges the authorities to take immediate steps to protect journalists from threats and other pressures in their work, including the selective use of state advertising allocations, in order to promote independent and pluralistic media and thereby provide the citizens of Kosovo with access to information. It also calls for the protection of journalists and for the establishment of minimum working rights and conditions for journalists. The European Parliament calls for measures to ensure transparency in media ownership and to ensure the financial and editorial independence of the public broadcaster."@en1
