Audio Read by an Automated Narrator

The content published or broadcasted by RFE/RL is AI-free. RFE/RL policy allows its journalists to use generative artificial intelligence only to do research, brainstorm, find inspiration, or to simplify the planning of tasks. It may suggest solutions, but it never replaces the human professional.

However, we offer the option to listen to the articles with the help of an automated narrator. We introduced this feature purely for your convenience. The content of the audio does not differ from the published text.

As with every automated voice, the audio might contain some errors in pronunciation and intonation. If you find it unacceptable, please, switch back to the text.
