The director of the state-funded US foreign broadcaster Voice of America, Bennett, and her deputy have announced their resignation.
The background is tensions with the American government. Bennett did not address this directly in her letter to the employees. The White House had accused the broadcaster of spreading Chinese propaganda, among other things. Also criticized was Voice of America's coverage of the corona pandemic, which US President Trump called disgusting.
