Recital 8

(8) Consistent with the fundamental rights and freedoms recognised in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, in particular with the right to freedom of expression and information, the freedom to conduct a business and the right to property as recognised in Articles 11, 16 and 17, respectively, thereof, the introduction of further restrictive measures does not prevent those media outlets and their staff from carrying out activities in the Union other than broadcasting, such as research and interviews. In particular, those restrictive measures do not modify the obligation to respect the rights, freedoms and principles referred to in Article 6 of the Treaty on European Union, including in the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, and in Member States’ constitutions, within their respective fields of application.
