US walks out of UN Security Council meeting during France's remarks

The US delegation walked out of a UN Security Council meeting on Monday, in protest at comments made by France that compared Washington's voting on human rights to that of authoritarian states.

The diplomatic row was initially sparked last week, when the US joined North Korea and Russia in voting against extending Volker Turk's term as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights.

After the vote on Friday, France's UN mission criticised the US and compared it to North Korea and Russia. "The US used to be a beacon of human rights. Not anymore," it posted on X.

In response, US ambassador Mike Waltz accused France of voting for a human rights chief who had been "lecturing" democratic countries while "cozying up to the world's worst oppressors", without elaborating on what he meant.

Turk has criticised Russia's war in Ukraine and Israel's military conduct in Gaza.

The US team's walkout came while France's ambassador Jerome Bonnafont was speaking during an emergency Security Council meeting on Russia's war in Ukraine.

US walks out of UN Security Council meeting ...

... is better than nothing.

Still hoping the US will walk away from the UN. And NATO.

Avoid foreign entanglements.

Europe will go to Hell no matter what we do, so why get dragged down with them?

Yeah, like the shenanigans the French are still doing in their former colonies in North Africa...

I am so tired of how this Euroscum portrays us. Time to wash our hands of Europe and leave them to their own devices as it pertains to defense.

First time in many months I’ve even heard from the UN, figures it would be some diplomatic sound and fury signifying nothing.

I don’t get walking out. Stay and fight. Argue back. Bring up France’s history of dirty human rights abuses, corruption and getting into bed with sleazy, evil dictators for financial gain. Walking out is a tantrum that makes a splashy show but ultimately does no good.

Shut the UnitedNazis down - at long last- and our ambassador can be offered a real, productive position instead of having to swim in all the anti- American bullkrap all day long

The enemy occupies France now. They should have been called out on they’re allowing no go zones and rampant rape to go on in their country.
