response Outside groups who d been criticizing Francesca Albanese celebrated what they called a long-awaited move while advocates for the end of the war in Gaza condemned the action Hillel Neuer executive director of the nongovernmental watchdog UN Watch had been pushing for years for Albanese to be removed from her post accusing her of antisemitism and anti-Israel bias He called it a bold and courageous move by Secretary of State Marco Rubio that was unprecedented Then again no UN official has ever been condemned for Holocaust distortion and antisemitism by France Germany Canada and

you know that I ll take back to the president He didn t elaborate Rubio declared President Trump has been disappointed and frustrated that there s not been more flexibility from Russia to end the
