Envoy's tweet on media freedoms triggers diplomatic tiff | Jordan News - Oct. 23, 2022 | The UAE's foreign ministry described the statements of the Dutch ambassador in Jordan as "irresponsible and outside diplomatic norms,... which are a blatant interference in Jordan's internal affairs." As local media outlets and social media platforms covered reactions to this unprecedented diplomatic tiff, Community Media Network (CMN) in Amman issued a statement on Thursday acknowledging that there had been posts and statements, which it characterized as "not accurate", that indirectly involved CMN/Radio al Balad and AmmanNet. The statement said that the organization had been contacted more than a year ago by the Dutch CEO of Ref FM (refugees FM), an organization that helps establish nonpolitical radio stations aimed at refugees. The CEO asked CMN whether it would be willing to work together to set up a station targeting Syrian refugees in Za'atari camp, the network said.
