Kyiv, 4 April 2014 \u2013 Speaking at a press briefing at the Ukraine Crisis Media Center, General Director of the National Broadcasting Company of Ukraine (NBCU), Zurab Alasaniya said: \u201cIn the nearest future, after the relevant law has been passed, the Cabinet of Ministers is planning to give up control of the NBCU and re-organize it into public television based on the updated structure of the NBCU and regional broadcasting companies.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cToday the NBCU owns 4 channels: Channel One, Channel One Ukraine, a digital channel and an analog channel. This is too much, the system needs to be optimized. There will be personnel cuts: the number of deputy directors of the NBCU will be reduced from nine to four, and NBCU\u2019s 60\u00a0 administration offices and directorates will be reduced to four,\u201d Mr. Alasaniya added.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs for the propaganda, I believe that public broadcasting should be free from it. There will be no political wars on public television as long as I am in charge. Propaganda issues should be handled by the UTR channel together with other organizations that broadcast internationally,\u201d emphasized the General Director of the NBCU.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the funding of the re-organized NBCU, Zurab Alasaniya said: \u201cFor some time, the NBCU will still be funded by the government. However, we\u2019ve immediately began cooperating with leading European and US organizations to receive grants for our work.\u201d<\/p>\n

Zurab Alasaniya is a public activist, journalist, founder of the MediaPort agenciy, head of the Kharkiv region broadcasting company from 2005 to 2010. On 25 March 2014 he was appointed Director of the NBCU.<\/p>\n
