This article needs quite a lot of work; it doesn't even talk about where Mr. Lobe was born, when he was born, what university/ies he attended, etc., and doesn't even give evidence for the claims that he is very left-wing; I've read many of his articles, so agree with this, but for a reader unfamiliar with him, those claims may seem like "You're-a-liberal!" smears...

Edit Request 22 January 2022

This edit request by an editor with a conflict of interest has now been answered.

hi, I'm the subject of this article. I don't have a specific problem with the contents of the article, but I noted that some additional citations for verification have been requested. In addition, the article appears to be about 9 years out of date. I am no longer the bureau chief at Inter Press Service, having left that position in 2016 and now work for the Quincy Institute for Responsible Statecraft.

But, as the article's subject, I know i'm not entitled to make revisions or updates myself and so wonder how that might best be done.

Thanks for your attention,
