L'Affaire des affaires #3

Clearstream Manipulation

Rate this book
Du 2 au 26 mai se tiendra le procès le plus médiatique de l'année. La justice essayera de faire la lumière sur une manipulation impliquant un président de la République, un ancien premier ministre, la Dgse, des multinationales...

Denis Robert est au coeur de la tempête depuis son origine. Révélant la première affaire Clearstream, il s'est trouvé aux prises avec les comploteurs et a été poursuivi avant d'être relaxé.

Il nous livre ici son témoignage de l'intérieur, au plus près des rouages de la machine. Ce troisième tome de L'Affaire des affaires, en partenariat avec France Info, est un incroyable témoignage, magnifiquement mis en images par Laurent Astier, qui se dévore comme le meilleur des polars.

Denis Robert (born 9 May 1958, Moyeuvre-Grande, Thionville-Ouest) is a French freelance journalist and a writer. Robert formerly worked for Libération newspaper for 12 years.

Denis Robert is best known as co-author of "Revelation$", a book published by Les Arènes on 1 March 2001, which accused Cedel, later Clearstream, of a number of illegal financial activities, such as aiding and abetting money laundering, tax evasion et cetera.

Clearstream then sued Denis Robert for libel and various other counts on multiple occasions.

On 29 March 2004, the Tribunal de Grande Instance de Paris (High Court) judged Robert, his publisher Les Arènes and the French TV company Canal+ France, which had repeated the allegations raised in Revelation$, to have failed in their attempts to prove any and all allegations; furthermore the court ordered damages to be paid to Clearstream and that the judgment be printed in two French newspapers explaining the defamatory nature of the material. Regarding the same allegations, on 16 October 2008, the Paris Court of Appeal confirmed Robert's sentence for defamation on eight counts. In February 2011, in a final judgment, the Court of Cassation overturned all convictions, ruling that his work was protected by freedom of speech and of the press.

C'est pas la partie la plus intéressante de l'histoire, mais ça résume rapidement ce qui a pris des mois à l'époque. L'événement est plus clair compressé ainsi.

La obra es un revelador viaje a través del entramado del poder financiero y político. Robert, con su aguda capacidad investigativa y su prosa incisiva, nos sumerge en un mundo de transacciones oscuras y manipulaciones sutiles, desnudando las complejidades de la corrupción moderna. La narrativa está meticulosamente documentada y, a la vez, es accesible para el lector, logrando un equilibrio entre rigor periodístico y ritmo novelístico. Este libro no solo informa, sino que también despierta una profunda reflexión sobre la integridad y la transparencia en nuestra sociedad. Sin duda, es recomendable e imprescindible para aquellos interesados en entender las intrincadas dinámicas del poder global.

Yo escribo, es una actividad cada vez más peligrosa.
