Francesca Albanese, a UN special rapporteur, criticized the West’s loss of credibility for allowing Israel unchecked actions, responding to French President Macron’s warning that abandoning Gaza undermines global credibility. Albanese stated that the West has sacrificed its credibility by granting Israel free passes for decades, advocating for sanctions against Israel and protection for occupied Palestinian territories. Macron emphasized the need for a ceasefire and humanitarian aid in Gaza, while Amnesty International’s Agnes Callamard echoed that the West’s credibility was lost long ago due to inaction in the ongoing conflict.
