🇫🇷 Foreign Minister Barrot: “She presents herself as a UN independent expert, yet she is neither an expert nor independent — she is a political activist who stirs up hate.”
People were genuinely shocked at Davos to see that russians have been mass murdering farmers in Kherson in their human safari. Really glad I could show my documentary to politicians and diplomats. This affects global food insecurity 🫡❤️🇺🇦
