Agreed!
So, why did you -as @UN SG- leave parties responsible for large-scale violations against children in armed conflicts off your ‚list of shame‘?
First step to hold perpetrators/states/groups accountable for serious crimes is to name & shame them.https://t.co/bQ80E76kKthttps://t.co/4jvxeZKIkb
— Lotte Leicht (@LotteLeicht1) July 30, 2019
The #UN SG simply refuses to hold to account all warring parties that have inflicted tremendous suffering on children.
By listing selected violators but not others, @antonioguterres ignores UN evidence & undermines efforts to protect children in conflict. https://t.co/bQ80E76kKt
