On July 9th, local time, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced on social media platforms that he had imposed sanctions on Special Rapporteur Francisca Albanese of the United Nations Human Rights Council for “illegal and shameful actions” that have led the International Criminal Court to take action against U.S. and Israeli officials, companies, and executives.
Blinken stated that the behavior of Albanese towards the United States and Israel will no longer be tolerated, and the United States will always support its partners in upholding their right to self-defense. (Cao Jian)
