Viasat Kino is a movie television channel targeting the Baltic countries. It is owned by the international broadcaster Viasat World [1] and was launched on 1 March 2003 by Swedish media conglomerate Modern Times Group. [2] [3]

On 1 March 2023, TV1000 East renamed to Viasat Kino. [4] [5]

On 31 March 2023, Viasat World TV channels stopped broadcasting in Ukraine, the reason was a conflict of interests with the Russian owners. [6]

On 9 June 2023, Viasat World TV channels resumed broadcasting on a Ukrainian satellite provider Viasat Ukraine and other cable providers. [7] [8] [9] However, Ukraine's regulator the National Council said it does not recommend the distribution of Viasat channels, despite the fact that they have a three-month licence issued in another EU country. [10]
