69.16: Public Diplomacy
Promoting a Free Marketplace of Ideas Other Information:
International broadcasting of free and impartial information during the Cold War kept truth and hope alive in the Captive
Nations. Today, Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Radio/TV Marti do the same in other lands where freedom is unknown or
endangered. We support these essential extensions of American values and culture and urge their expansion in the Middle East.
Recognizing the vital role of social media in recent efforts to promote democracy, we support unrestricted access to the Internet
throughout the world to advance the free marketplace of ideas.
