Ms. Francesca Albanese, United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Palestinian Territories, was interviewed on February 12, 2026, by the daily newspaper L'Humanité. In this 34-minute video, she responds to the accusations and disinformation campaign targeting her, in an interview with journalist Vadim Kamenka.
Questioned by MP Caroline Yadan, Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot called for the resignation of Francesca Albanese from the United Nations. The reason: a truncated and false statement attributed to the Special Rapporteur for the Palestinian Territories, which has been repeated by numerous supporters of the genocidal campaign waged by Tel Aviv in the Gaza Strip. A correction is expected from the Ministry, at the very least.
