Radio B2-92 news rebroadcast in Ukraine
BELGRADE, June 12, 2000 — Radio Inicijativa in Lavrov is to begin rebroadcasting new programs from Radio B2-92, ANEM’s flagship station. The Belgrade station was taken off the air by the Serbian government a month ago. This is the fourth time the station has been banned.
Radio B2-92 news in English will be heard on Radio Inicijativa, 102.5 MHz FM, on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays between 18:50 and 19:00 (satellite broadcast) and in Ukrainian (translation of the day’s top stories) between 21:00 and 21:10.
Translations of Radio B2-92 news will be presented by Boris Varga on his current affairs program Balkan Express.
This is the first collaboration between Ukrainian and Yugoslav independent media and follows the successful launch of Radio B2-92 news on Radio Tilos in Budapest in May.
In this way, Radio B2-92 is continuing to build a network of radio stations which will improve the flow of information throughout the region. The ultimate aim is to establish a network which will erase borders and make repression of information in any part of Central and South-East Europe meaningless.
Thanks to such regional collaboration, B2-92 will soon be heard in Belgrade again, as well as in parts of Yugoslavia where it has not previously been on the air.
