EU to provide €5.5mln in emergency funds to help keep Radio Free Europe afloat

Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty’s corporate headquarters are in Washington and its journalistic headquarters are based in the Czech Republic, which has been leading the EU drive to find funds.
The European Union has agreed to provide emergency funds to help keep Radio Free Europe afloat after the Trump administration stopped grants to the pro-democracy media outlet, accusing it of promoting a news agenda with a liberal bias.

Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty started broadcasting during the Cold War.

Its programs are aired in 27 languages in 23 countries across Eastern Europe, Central Asia and the Middle East.

Its lawyers have been fighting the administration's decision in court.
