Delphine Minoui in interview with Jane Massey
Since 2009, Delphine has been Middle East correspondent for Le Figaro. She has always chosen to stay on the ground, favouring the long view to better relay voices and dispel clichés. She intends to tell, beyond the headlines of the news, stories from a human perspective where resistance against ignorance and indoctrination is a daily struggle.
She is also the author of eight books. Her bibliography is rich in personal accounts, ranging from journalistic reports to life stories, taking us on a journey through the Middle East, to Iran, of course, but also to Yemen, Libya and Syria.
