Serbian NGO watchdog accuses TV Pink of spreading disinformation on foreign funding

BIRODI, a Serbian social research bureau, alleges that pro-government media outlet TV Pink is repeating false claims about NGOs receiving billions in foreign funding, contributing to a hostile atmosphere against civil society. The accusation highlights an ongoing campaign to discredit NGOs as 'foreign mercenaries' in Serbia. This matters as it signals escalating political pressure on civil society and potential restrictions on foreign-funded organizations.
