Stéphane Dujarric

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stéphane Dujarric served as chief spokesman for UN Secretary General Kofi Annan from June 2005 through December 2006. During that time he faced daily questions on a number of crises, notably the Oil for Food scandal and the Israel-Lebanon conflict.

He was replaced by the Haitian journalist Michèle Montas when Ban Ki-moon became the new United Nations Secretary-General in January 2007.

Previously, Dujarric served as an associate spokesman for the UN, under Fred Eckhard, and before that he worked nine years for ABC News in New York, London and Paris, traveling extensively on assignment throughout Europe, Africa and the Middle East. Dujarric graduated from Georgetown University's School of Foreign Service in 1988.[1]
