Der \u00f6ffentlich-rechtliche Sender NDR untersagt dem Europaabgeordneten Petr Bystron die Verbreitung einer NDR-Dokumentation \u00fcber das Journalistennetzwerk OCCRP. In dem Film prahlt OCCRP-Chef Drew Sullivan damit, \u2019f\u00fcnf oder sechs Regierungen gest\u00fcrzt\u201c zu haben. NDR-Reporter konnten zudem aufdecken, dass das Netzwerk jahrelang heimlich von den USA finanziert wurde. Die Ausstrahlung des Films wurde im Vorfeld gestoppt. Im Dezember 2024 machte die franz\u00f6sische Investigativplattform Mediapart die Angelegenheit \u00f6ffentlich. Bystron ver\u00f6ffentlichte eine durchgesickerte Version der brisanten Dokumentation, und der NDR fordert nun unter Androhung einer Geldstrafe von 50.000 Euro, dass er dies unterl\u00e4sst.<\/p>\n

Dazu erkl\u00e4rt Petr Bystron, Mitglied des Europ\u00e4ischen Parlaments f\u00fcr die ESN-Fraktion:<\/p>\n

\u201cEin \u00f6ffentlich-rechtlicher Sender, der eine Dokumentation aus dem Programm nimmt, betreibt Zensur. Wenn der Leiter des OCCRP offen erkl\u00e4rt, dass seine Organisation f\u00fcr den Sturz von \u2018f\u00fcnf oder sechs Regierungen\u2019 verantwortlich ist, dann muss es der \u00d6ffentlichkeit gestattet sein, diese Aussagen zu sehen. Die NDR-Recherche zeigt zudem, dass das OCCRP jahrzehntelang heimlich aus den USA finanziert wurde. Nach den EU-Wahlen flossen weitere 600.000 Euro an das OCCRP, w\u00e4hrend das Netzwerk konservative Kandidaten bek\u00e4mpfte und auch meiner Kandidatur schadete. Die Tatsache, dass der NDR mich nun mit einer Unterlassungsaufforderung einsch\u00fcchtern will, zeigt, wie sehr es ihnen darauf ankommt, Sullivans Zitate zu verbergen. Die w\u00fctenden Reaktionen von OCCRP und Sullivan auf X, einschlie\u00dflich seiner Rechtfertigungen als Antwort auf Berichte der \u201dBerliner Zeitung\u201c und seines Kommentars zu Charlie Kirk, sprechen B\u00e4nde.\u201c<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
