Secretary of State Marco Rubio has introduced the USA shall be imposing sanctions on the United Nations (UN) particular rapporteur on human rights within the occupied Palestinian territories, accusing her of anti-Semitism, and supporting terrorism.
“At this time I’m imposing sanctions on UN Human Rights Council Particular Rapporteur Francesca Albanese for her illegitimate and shameful efforts to immediate [International Criminal Court] motion in opposition to U.S. and Israeli officers, corporations, and executives,” Rubio wrote in a press release on July 9 posted to the social media platform X.
