"Voice of America" ​​to close / Trump signs order and suspends
Voice of America

Many Voice of America employees have been suspended from work, immediately after the order signed by US President Donald Trump.

This was announced by one of the important journalists of the "Voice of America" ​​in the Albanian language version, Elez Biberaj.

According to him, this decision will have serious consequences for the US's global image and interests, as well as for the promotion of democratic values ​​in the world.

"Voice of America, a beacon of hope and truth for hundreds of millions around the globe, was shut down today in the name of reducing federal bureaucracy.

For more than eight decades, Voice of America has been a vital force in promoting America's democratic ideals, faithfully presenting U.S. policies, advancing national interests, and serving as a trusted source of credible news for millions in information-deprived regions.

"The decision to dismantle one of America's greatest national assets will cause profound damage to the image of the United States, its global interests, and the promotion of democratic values ​​- damage that no adversary can ever match. Today marks a deeply sad chapter in the history of America's engagement with the world," Biberaj writes.

Several Voice of America employees were suspended this Saturday, a day after Trump signed an executive order that hits the government-funded media and six other federal agencies.

Multiple employees at Voice of America, an international media broadcaster that operates in more than 40 languages, shared with Reuters an email placing them on administrative leave with full pay and benefits "until further notice."

This order included the Agency for Global Media, which covers Voice of America, Radio Free Europe and Asia, as well as Radio Marti, which broadcasts Spanish-language news in Cuba.
