U.N. Chief Denies Responsibility for Pro-Hamas U.N. Rapporteur Francesca Albanese Q: “The Human Rights Council just decided to extend the mandate of special rapporteur Francesca Albanese, which has drawn condemnation from the United States. It says this shows the UN “made clear that the United Nations tolerates antisemitic hatred bias against Israel and the legitimization of terrorism.” Your response? UN: “As you know, the Secretary-General for whom I am speaking on behalf of has no decision-making power in these appointments. It all belongs to the Human Rights Council.” Q: “But does the UN tolerate antisemitism?” UN: “I think you know the answer to that question. No.”
