ROME – The Italian Insider wishes to state that Mr Osama Owaneh, of Amman, Jordan, has never had any contact with the Italian Insider or any of its journalists and has never been a source of information directly or indirectly for any of our articles about the UN agencies in the Middle East including the Food and Agriculture Organization.

 Italian Insider regrets if there has been any inadvertent confusion between Mr Owaneh and anyone quoted in our news articles with a somewhat similar name who may have been a source of information for our reporting.
