In an interview for KosovaPress, Kostina says that due to Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine, 16 Ukrainian journalists have died while they were on duty.
"It's very big diversity, because we have some common challenges, probably finance, trust etc, etc. We have absolutely different level of such challenges like disinformation", said Kostina.
"It's a hard period. I think, all in Ukraine stresses after almost two years of war, but what about media, they are really very professional in the case of Russian propaganda. Ukraine is really going to bring into the court. And I think it will be such kind of experience and after another country could use probably. So, I think in fighting disinformation we are on a leading place in region, but concerning mostly of Russia propaganda. I think in Kosovo you have similar challenges but with some other actors", said Kostina.
Speaking about the challenges that journalists have faced while reporting, Kostina says that 16 Ukrainian journalists have been killed in the war because of their professional responsibility, some as civilians, and others because they were serving in the army.
According to her, all people still suffer at the same level from the war that is taking place there.
"It's not some kind of category of people who had some preferences. It's still like, all people of Ukraine, I mean they suffer in the same level", said Kostina.
