In Eastern Europe, cross-border journalism (CBJ) belongs to a long tradition of cooperation between neighbors, which has gained new impetus for development with their EU accession and EU financial support. It develops around relevant issues such as cross-border and global crime and corruption, tourism and culture. In Russia, independent journalists develop CBJ on sensitive issues (human rights, corruption, protests) that are ignored by the mainstream media. Their legitimacy is confirmed by the economic support of readers and professional support of cross-border cooperation. However, their growing influence in society is directly proportional to their risk of closure by the authorities under one pretext or another. The future of CBJ is inextricably linked to the quality of democracy and the rule of law, as well as good neighborhood policy.
