Agence France-Presse, a global leader in digital investigation, has been selected in an open tender by the European Commission to help in the fight against disinformation in Hungary, which to date has no other recognised organisation in this field.

Agence France-Presse and Google today announced an agreement on the remuneration of neighbouring rights under French law. This follows months of constructive negotiations within the framework set by the French Competition Authority. The wider partnership with AFP will also encompass other projects, including a program dedicated to fact checking, with more details to be shared soon.
