Political advertising: progress and prospects as trilogues begin

Over two years ago, the Commission announced its planned regulation on political advertising, designed to increase transparency and clamp down on disinformation in EU elections. Trilogue negotiations on the proposed regulation are now underway, with the Swedish Council presidency hoping to reach a general approach by June. On this week’s Tech Brief podcast, MEP Sandro Gozi, who was the rapporteur for the file in Parliament, discusses its progress, the trilogue outlook and some of the key points of contention.
