Iran's parliament has voted to further criminalize interviews with 'hostile media'. This was reported by Qazaqyia.kz citing Reuters.
The bill aims to tighten restrictions on contacts with foreign media outlets deemed hostile to Iran's state policy. The new rules introduce additional restrictions on conducting interviews with representatives of such media, as well as on providing them with information.
This decision was made as part of Iran's efforts to strengthen its information security policy. According to parliament members, such measures will help protect the country's national interests and counter external information influence.
The bill still requires further approval, but its adoption indicates a tightening of information policy in Iran. Experts note that this decision may affect the work of international media in Iran.
