US imposes sanctions on UN Human Rights Council Special Rapporteur Albanese
Washington, July 9 (Hibya) – US Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced sanctions against Francesca Albanese, the UN Human Rights Council’s Special Rapporteur.
Rubio stated that Albanese was sanctioned for her support of the “illegitimate and disgraceful” efforts by the International Criminal Court to take action against US and Israeli officials, companies, and executives.
He emphasized that Albanese's political and economic campaign against the US and Israel will no longer be tolerated. “We will always stand by our partners’ right to self-defense. The US will continue to take any necessary action to protect our sovereignty and that of our allies,” Rubio said.
