Press release distribution helps politics in the MENA region by providing a direct channel for political actors and governments to communicate their narratives, policy positions, and announcements to large, diverse audiences across both traditional and digital media ¹. 
In a landscape marked by state control, regulatory restrictions, and media bias, press releases enable targeted messaging that can reinforce regime-supportive narratives or shape public opinion on key issues ². 

Additionally, the rise of digital platforms and social media has amplified the reach and speed of political communication, allowing for rapid dissemination of information and influence operations, though this also brings challenges related to censorship, content moderation, and political sensitivities ¹.
