"I refuse to sign amendments to the law on broadcasting and sending the bill back to the Sejm (Polish parliament) for reconsideration. This means I am vetoing the bill," Duda told journalists on Monday.
The Poland's Sejm has passed amendments to the law on broadcasting. According to amendments, a company broadcasting on the territory of Poland cannot be owned by non-EU residents and the proportion of foreign shares should not be more than 49%.
Amendments in Poland were seen as an attack on freedom of media and provoked a wave of protests.
