French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot tells lawmaker the French government demands UN Rapporteur's resignation after her latest hateful rant against Israel.
“France unreservedly condemns the outrageous and reprehensible remarks made by Ms. Francesca Albanese, which are directed not at the Israeli government, whose policies may be criticized, but at Israel as a people and as a nation, which is absolutely unacceptable," Barrot said.
He stated that Albanese's remarks “target not the Israeli government, whose policies can be criticized, but Israel as a people and as a nation, which is absolutely unacceptable," and that they "add to a long list of scandalous positions, justifying October 7, the worst antisemitic massacre in our history since the Holocaust, mentioning the Jewish lobby or comparing Israel to the Third Reich."
Barrot's comments come after over 20 French MPs demanded that Albanese be removed from her position in response to the Rapporteur's remarks at an Al Jazeera conference on Saturday, which was also attended by Hamas leader Khaled Mashaal.

France is taking an official stance against against pro-Palestinian bias at the UN?!!
It’s a welcome change, but who would have guessed?
I’ll give Ms. Albanese credit for one thing. Her comments make it even easier for Trump to justify withholding our UN “dues”.
Don’t give in, Mr. Trump. Send them a couple dollars and some McDonald’s coupons. Then call it even.
Considering they had a real Nazi, in Kurt Waldheim, for UN Secretary General, it’s par for the course for the “Un”.
Thanks for bringing up sick Ilhan Omar, they are almost twins in twisted logic.
Yup. Almost forgot about that one.
