00:01Guinea's media regulator has issued a formal warning to French broadcaster France 24,
00:06accusing it of using an inappropriate term to describe President Mahmoud Doubouya.
00:11The High Authority for Communication said the channel had deliberately referred to Doubouya
00:16as a push's precedent during a September 14 broadcast.
00:21Doubouya seized power in a 2021 military coup before being elected president in December 2025
00:28in a vote that was held without significant opposition.
00:31The regulator said France 24 had ignored what is called the presidency's legitimacy from the ballot box
00:38and ordered the broadcaster to make editorial corrections across its digital platforms.
00:43The authority warned it would impose sanctions if the channel repeats what it described as an offense.
00:51France 24 had not immediately responded to a request for comment.
00:58The regulator also withdrew the press accreditation of a geographic correspondent
01:02and username of professional misconduct.
