Irish PM Martin defends media rules in DC, calling Ireland a free speech leader while pushing EU regulatory reform for AI innovation.
Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin defended Ireland’s media regulations in Washington DC, calling the country a "bastion of free speech" while emphasizing protections for children and democracy against harmful online technologies.
Speaking during EU Digital Services Act hearings, he rejected claims that Ireland’s media watchdog, Coimisiún na Meán, suppresses expression, noting Ireland’s high rankings in global freedom and human rights indices.
Martin urged regulatory simplification across Europe to boost innovation, especially in artificial intelligence, as the EU works on streamlining rules to balance safety, rights, and competitiveness amid global advances by the U.S. and China.
