Biography
Ahmed Fathi is an internationally respected journalist, author, and global affairs analyst with two decades of experience reporting on diplomacy, international conflict, and global governance. His career has taken him across the Middle East and North Africa, Europe, Asia and the United States, shaped by a multicultural background and a commitment to clear, impactful journalism across television, radio, print, and digital platforms. As Managing Editor of American Television News (ATN) and a long time United Nations correspondent, Fathi is known for delivering sharp, culturally attuned reporting and analysis that connects complex international developments to audiences around the world. He is a frequent guest analyst on major global networks including NHK-Japan, France24, BBC, Al Jazeera, NTN24-Colombia, Voice of America, and CGTN, where his commentary spans global crises, U.S. foreign policy, and multilateral diplomacy. Among his most compelling field assignments is his reporting from Kazakhstan’s former nuclear test sites, where he investigated the lingering humanitarian and environmental impacts of Cold War-era atomic testing. His coverage from Semipalatinsk and Kurchatov amplified global attention to the ongoing effects of radiation exposure, generational health issues, and the moral legacy of nuclear policy. Fathi’s written work has been translated and republished in Arabic, Chinese, French, Japanese, and Spanish, making his insights accessible across regions and languages. His reporting and analysis are regularly cited by academic institutions, policy centers, and diplomatic channels. He is the author of America First, The World Divided: Trump 2.0 Influence, a balanced analysis of transactional diplomacy and economic nationalism, examining how short-term foreign policy approaches have reshaped alliances and challenged multilateral institutions. A sought-after public speaker, Fathi delivers keynote addresses at international summits, diplomatic forums, and academic institutions. His presentations are known for their clarity, strategic insight, and ability to bridge past and present—offering audiences deeper understanding of geopolitical trends, media ethics, and global cooperation. Fathi’s contributions have been recognized with several honors, including the President’s Lifetime Achievement Award – Gold Medal from the White House, Royal Society of St. George Medal, the United Peace Keepers Federal Council (UNPKFC) Medal, and an Honorary Doctorate in Political Science—acknowledging his lifelong commitment to journalism, public service, and civic engagement. In 2025, Fathi was appointed President of the Royal Society of St. George – California Branch, under the patronage of His Majesty King Charles III. In this role, he promotes transatlantic relations, leads global recognition initiatives, and champions cultural diplomacy through dialogue, leadership, and shared heritage. Fluent in English, Arabic, Dutch, and French, and conversational in Afrikaans, Ahmed Fathi continues to connect institutions, cultures, and ideas—through journalism that informs, diplomacy that bridges divides, and storytelling that resonate
