Prawne mechanizmy przeciwdziałania ingerencji w sprawy wewnętrzne Unii Europejskiej
Legal Mechanisms to Counteract Interference in the Internal Affairs of the European Union

Summary/Abstract: This article examines the legal mechanisms employed by the European Union to counteract interference in its internal affairs, focusing on contemporary challenges such as disinformation, foreign funding, and the manipulation of democratic processes. By analyzing key actions taken by the EU – such as the adoption of the Defence of Democracy action plan, the work of the INGE special committees, European Parliament resolutions, and legislative initiatives by the European Commission regarding transparency in third-country interest representation – the article traces the evolution of the Union’s efforts to defend democratic institutions. It emphasizes the growing importance of new technologies, their impact on information security, and the need to enhance legal mechanisms to effectively counter external threats that undermine the sovereignty and stability of both the Member States and the EU itself.
