The statement also said that "the Council initiated the process for suspending the broadcasting licences of two additional media outlets: RT Arabic and
Sputnik Arabic."
The Council made a decision to suspend the broadcasting licenses of the media outlets in order to address Russia's "systematic, international campaign of disinformation and information manipulation intended to destabilise its neighbouring countries, the EU and its member states," the statement added.
