Английская Википедия:De West
Шаблон:Italic title De West is one of the main newspapers of Suriname.
De West was founded in 1892, and in its early years was a conservative paper that had a somewhat antagonistic rivalry with the left-leaning Suriname, the other leading newspaper in what was then the Dutch colony of Suriname.[1] De West became a daily newspaper in 1950 owned and edited by David George Findlay.[2]
On 25 February 1980, Dési Bouterse led a coup d'état. During the coup a hand grenade was thrown into the offices of De West, and the building was under fire. Luckily the fighting only caused minor damage.[3] The paper was forced to close in the early 1980s following a coup led by Dési Bouterse. It was allowed to reopen in 1984, although still under some government censorship.[4] Шаблон:As of, it is the second-largest paper by circulation in Suriname, after de Ware Tijd, and takes an independent political stance.[5]
