Francesca Albanese Interview: UN Rapporteur on Gaza Genocide and Sanctions
The Nation interviews Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur on the occupied Palestinian Territories, who has faced US sanctions for her reports accusing Israel of genocide in Gaza and detailing corporate complicity by entities like Microsoft, Amazon, and Alphabet. Albanese discusses her mapping of 66 states violating obligations to prevent genocide, the role of Big Tech and financial systems in what she calls 'necrocapitalism,' and her determination despite threats. A US district judge recently blocked the sanctions against her, citing First Amendment violations. Albanese emphasizes that denial of genocide is part of the genocide itself and calls for immediate cessation of arms trading with Israel.
