UN to Israel: How DARE You Release Call of Us Shaming You

A spokesperson for the United Nations blasts the “unacceptable” decision by Israeli Ambassador to the UN Gilad Erdan to release a recording of him being formally informed of the decision to include Israel on a so-called list of shame.

Stéphane Dujarric tells The New York Times that the release of the video was “shocking and unacceptable and something I’ve never seen in my 25 years serving this organization.”

“The call was a courtesy afforded to countries that are newly listed,” Dujarric tells the newspaper, “to give countries heads up and avoid leaks.”
