The International Press Institute (IPI) and the Media and Journalism Research Center (MJRC) launched the fourth in a new series of Media Capture Monitoring Reports for 2025, this time putting the focus on Romania.
The report reviews developments regarding media capture in Romania in 2025 and the country’s compliance with the European Media Freedom Act (EMFA) since the EU Commission’s regulation entered into full force in August.
This report is part of a broader series covering seven other EU countries: Bulgaria, Finland, Greece, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Spain.
These reports are intended as a vital resource for media rights organizations, civil society groups, policymakers, and advocates dedicated to monitoring and fostering media freedom across the EU.
This report by IPI is part of the Media Freedom Rapid Response (MFRR), a Europe-wide mechanism which tracks, monitors and responds to violations of press and media freedom in EU Member States and Candidate Countries.
