The United Nations General Assembly adopted at its 68th session in 2013 a resolution called the “International Day to End Impunity for Crimes Against Journalists”. The resolution urged member states to implement definite measures countering the present culture of impunity. The 02 November was chosen in commemoration of the two French journalists who were assassinated in Mali. The resolution condemns all attacks and violence against journalists and media workers. Then in 2014 the UNESCO Director General Irina Bokova condemned the killing of 87 journalists.
