MIP reported on renewal of Ukrainian broadcasting at Lviv media forum

First Deputy Minister of information policy of Ukraine Emine Dzhaparova spoke at the Lviv media forum and told about the main problems on the restoration of broadcasting in the occupied territories of Crimea and Donbas.

"In the Crimea, as well as in the Donbas, the problems of restoration of Ukrainian broadcasting are similar: high TV towers are captured and controlled by the occupier. TV towers from the Ukrainian side, even if they equipped with powerful transmitters, are not able to cover fully the occupied territories. Therefore, the main thing is the installation of TV towers, three of which must be installed on the East and one in the Kherson region. This is a minimum program," said Emine Dzhaparova.

The Lviv media forum is the major media event of the year, which took place on 26-28 of May in Lviv in the Arena Lviv center and in separate locations of the city. Among the speakers of the event were: Emine Dzhaparova - First Deputy Minister of information policy of Ukraine; Jan Tombinski - head of the EU delegation to Ukraine; Geoffrey Pyatt - Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassador of the USA to Ukraine; David Herszenhorn - a journalist of "The New York Times"; representatives of Ukrainian media.

Recall, that the Lviv media forum is the event, which takes place in Ukraine since 2013, and brings together journalists, PR specialists and experts from the media field.
