Freedom of speech is limited in the Czech Republic and people can go to prison for their opinions.
Freedom of speech is guaranteed in the Czech Constitution and in the Charter of Fundamental Rights and Freedoms. Inciting hatred against a nation, race, ethnic group, religion, class or other group of people is a criminal act.
Cases in the EUvsDisinfo database focus on messages in the international information space that are identified as providing a partial, distorted, or false depiction of reality and spread key pro-Kremlin messages. This does not necessarily imply, however, that a given outlet is linked to the Kremlin or editorially pro-Kremlin, or that it has intentionally sought to disinform. EUvsDisinfo publications do not represent an official EU position, as the information and opinions expressed are based on media reporting and analysis of the East Stratcom Task Force.
