It is unthinkable to suffer under a dictatorship in one of the member states of the EU. If the cultural sphere and those mediums whom are the embodiment of free speech are restricted in their ways or practises, you'll lose freedom. That cannot be allowed nor allowed to be sacrificed on the altar of petty politics!

With Solidarity,

Dear Robert, 

We really hope that the EU won't let this happen. Sadly, they have just condoned the government's stealing of private pension accounts. So there is room for doubt. Do tell your friends about this petition, please and send them the link with some background information in English:
