Unexpected Move Puts Country With ‘Abysmal’ Record In Charge of New Task

It’s been said that we live in a clown world, a statement that is repeatedly validated as true.

The most recent, and perhaps most striking, example of this is the news that a Saudi Arabian ambassador has been elected as Chair of the Commission on the Status of Women, a decision that was met with no resistance from the other members of the UN.

That’s right. The same global powers that try to virtue signal about a variety of social issues just put in power one of the most gender-restrictive regimes in the world.

Hillel Neuer, an international human rights lawyer, highlighted the paradoxical situation we are currently facing:

Champions of the UN in 2024:
🇨🇳 China sits on the UN Human Rights Council
🇸🇦 Saudi Arabia chairs the UN Women’s Rights Commission
🇮🇷 Islamic Republic of Iran chairs the UN Disarmament Commission

It seems that there is no limit to insanity these days.
