Francesca Albanese: Why Israel ‘should be treated as a pariah state’

“Israel should be treated as a pariah state,” argues Francesca Albanese.

In this Real Talk interview, we speak with Albanese, the UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian territories, about the reported abuses inside Israel’s Sde Teiman prison and delve into whether the UN is doing enough to ensure Israel’s compliance with international law. We also asked her about the personal attacks levelled against her and whether they could impact her standing within the UN.
