>> Rights experts slammed the US sanctions against Albanese. Dylan Williams, vice-president for government affairs at the Center for International Policy thinktank, labeled them as “rogue state behavior” while Amnesty International said special rapporteurs must be supported and not sanctioned.
>> “Governments around the world and all actors who believe in the rule-based order and international law must do everything in their power to mitigate and block the effect of the sanctions against Francesca Albanese and more generally to protect the work and independence of Special Rapporteurs,” Agnes Callamard, Amnesty International’s secretary general and a former UN special rapporteur herself, said.
