This is Radio Free Iran
23 June 2009Die Welt Berlin
For people living in the Eastern Bloc during the communist era, Radio Free Europe was one of the few alternative sources for news from the rest of the world. On the eve of the twentieth anniversary of the 1989 revolution, Romania prepares to pay homage to the station that vehemently criticised the Ceausescu regime. 
While the regime in Teheran cracks down on national media, Iranians broadcasting from abroad become increasingly important. In Prague, Radio Farda is reporting on events in Iran on a daily basis despite attempts to silence it.
