The Editors' Syndicate: Billeange's visit unrelated to us
The article discusses the Lebanese Journalists Syndicate's rejection of the visit by Antoine Bellangie, Secretary-General of the International Federation of Journalists. It emphasized that the visit was not coordinated with the syndicate and that it led to the syndicate's withdrawal from the federation due to his actions, which violated protocols and encroached on the syndicate's authority. The syndicate also criticized the federation's support for the Media Law, which allows journalists to be imprisoned, calling for the defense of journalists impacted by the Beirut explosion and the Israeli war. Members of the syndicate and former members of the International Federation condemned the lack of coordination before official meetings, asserting that the legitimacy of the syndicate comes from its own law, not external recognition, and questioning how committed the federation truly is to defending journalists.
