US sanctions UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese following ‘Economy of Genocide’ report - DiEM25 Communications

Marco Rubio denounces the Italian human rights scholar for urging ICC action against Israel and the US

The US imposed sanctions on Wednesday, July 9, on the United Nations special rapporteur for Palestine, Francesca Albanese. The sanctions follow Albanese’s scathing report on 30 June in which she named over 60 companies, including major US technology firms like Google, Amazon and Microsoft, which she said were involved in “the transformation of Israel’s economy of occupation to an economy of genocide”. The report called for the International Criminal Court and national judicial systems to pursue investigations and prosecutions of corporate executives and companies. It also called on United Nations member states to pursue sanctions and asset freezes.
