Francesca Albanese debunks this common NPC talking point. Francesca Albanese is a Special Rapporteur on the human rights situation in the Palestinian territories. Her work and statements on Palestine and Israel have sparked several controversies.
In March 2024, Albanese reported to the UN Human Rights Council, suggesting that there are "reasonable grounds" to believe Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. She pointed out that Israel has committed three acts of genocide with the necessary intent: causing serious bodily or mental harm, deliberately creating conditions to physically destroy the group, and imposing measures to prevent births within the group.
Critics have accused Albanese of antisemitism and bias against Israel. The Israeli government has formally objected to her appointment, citing her significant bias against the Jewish state. Following her statement that "the victims of the October 7 massacre were not murdered because of their Jewishness, but in response to Israeli oppression," Israel banned her from entering the country.
Despite the controversies, Albanese continues to advocate for sanctions against Israel and an end to what she describes as a long-standing process of erasing native Palestinians through settler colonialism. She urges Member States to fulfill their obligations by imposing an arms embargo and sanctions on Israel.
