Vergangene Woche besuchte die deutsche Außenministerin mit ihrem französischen Amtskollegen die Übergangsregierung in Damaskus. Auf Bildern der Visite wurde sie unkenntlich gemacht. Aber von wem?
This article discusses a recent visit by German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock to Syria, focusing on the controversy surrounding the pixilation of her image on certain online platforms.
While the Syrian government's official channels did not censor her image, Islamist Telegram channel "Almharar," portraying itself as representing the "Free Syrian Network," blurred Baerbock's face on their platform, consistent with their policy of pixilating women in photos. This sparked debate over whether the Syrian government was responsible for the censorship or if it was the actions of the Telegram channel.
Essentially, the core idea is to highlight a conflict between presenting a seemingly open and collaborative visit by Baerbock to Syria and the constraints imposed by political actors and online platforms, particularly concerning the representation of women.
