Biography

Serge Halimi was elected editorial director of Le Monde diplomatique on 17 December 2007. He assumed the position on 1 March 2008, replacing Ignacio Ramonet. Before that, he served as a journalist at the newspaper.

In 2019, citing decades of American military adventurism dragging NATO nations into wars and President Trump's erratic leadership on Syria, Halimi called for European countries to leave NATO.[3]
