#G7Summit2019
We are delighted that the initiative we launched less than a year ago has been presented to the leaders attending the #G7Summit in Biarritz.

#InformationDemocracy
We know that not all of the world’s leaders share this ideal, but that’s an additional reason for promoting this initiative internationally, an initiative that will soon make it possible to implement concrete guarantees.

🔴 Sous le règne du président Xi Jinping, le Parti communiste chinois a drastiquement accru son contrôle sur les journalistes. Lisez l''enquête RSF qui révèle l’ampleur de la répression du régime contre le droit à l'information.
rsf.org/fr/rapports/un…
#1 ▶️ Les journalistes contraints à devenir des porte-voix du parti.
Pour obtenir leur carte de presse, les journalistes doivent télécharger l’appli "Étudier Xi, renforcer le pays" et devront bientôt suivre des cours sur la "pensée Xi". Lire le rapport : bit.ly/3EN2OJf
#2 ▶️ La plus grande prison de journalistes au monde.
Le régime détient actuellement 127 #journalistes. Enquêter sur un sujet tabou peut valoir des années de détention dans des prisons insalubres, où les mauvais traitements peuvent entraîner la mort.

#2 ▶️ The world’s biggest captor of journalists.
127 #journalists are currently detained by the regime. Investigating a “sensitive” topic can result in years of detention in unsanitary prisons, where ill-treatment can lead to death. Read the report here: bit.ly/3GhdEau
