US accuses UN body of hypocrisy after condemnation of US police brutality
WASHINGTON, June 21 (NNN-AGENCIES) — United States Secretary of State Mike Pompeo accused the United Nations Human Rights Council of hypocrisy after the organisation condemned racism and police brutality in the US following the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis last month.
Pompeo said the 47-member forum’s unanimous resolution on Friday on policing and race was a new low for the Council and reaffirmed the US’ decision to withdraw from the organisation in 2018.
