Sofiane Aklouf France Info economics commentary, Digi Mart USA News: A new voice on the morning show of France Info, Sofiane Aklouf brings a calm delivery and light tone that stand out amid the flow of news. He is also seen on Franceinfo TV, where he has built a place for himself with his daily segment “Le monde et vous,” which mixes international affairs and economics, a subject he particularly enjoys.
The idea for discussing global issues that could affect French daily life came from the station’s director, Agnès Vahramian, who gave him a free hand. The 31-year-old journalist, who was an intern at the France 2 Washington bureau, previously worked at TF1 and BFM.
Each morning he covers ongoing upheavals in Australia, where cash is making a comeback in everyday use, and in Greenland, where an old graphite mine is attracting the interest of electric car manufacturers. He uses a rounded writing style and includes excerpts from interviews.
“I try to bring a bit of color, smiles and surprise, and I take great pleasure in it,” he said. The segment airs Monday to Friday at 7:23 a.m.
and 11:25 a.m. on France Info, and is also available as a podcast.
