Be careful with this clown’s terminology and choice of words.
When he says “relocate”, the UN and he understand this as “setup with housing, money / jobs / welfare / pension / benefits”. That doesn’t mean the millions in camps and roaming the streets anonymously.

What, is this little dried-up zebra turd boss of the world all of a sudden? Self-important jerks like him don’t last long in reality, though that also means actually holding a job in the real working world. I’ve seen more than a few of them hang themselves in my department, and just smiled and waved goodbye to them after they’d been summarily fired for gross incompetence/lying/stealing. Happy happy joy joy!
