(string)Ironicamente,#Sergio era Chefe máximo da #ONU em #DireitosHumanos. Os sobreviventes do atentado gostariam de saber por que a imunidade não foi suspensa para oferecer justiça. Não estamos sozinhos:muitos são os que sofriram abuso p/ imunidade de organizações internacionais
Apos a repercussão do filme #Sergio da #Netflix, quis compartilhar um pouco sobre quem realmente era #SergioVieiradeMello, mas acima de tudo, narrar o que realmente aconteceu após o ataque de #Bagdá em 2003. Éramos uma família quando a bomba explodiu

Agir pour la santé des populations, c’est bien sûr faire reculer la maladie et la mort. Mais c’est aussi, en même temps, faire reculer les inégalités.

@JY_LeDrian Ce combat, nous ne le remporterons pas sans avoir d’abord mené jusqu’à son terme une bataille décisive : la bataille contre le #sida, la #tuberculose et le #paludisme.

My strongest memory of #KofiAnnan was in November 1998. The Security Council was debating the Butler report on Iraq, but Butler had already provided the report to the US, which was preparing an attack on Iraq. This created great tension in the Council. >>
Others believed the Council had to decide whether Butler's findings warranted a military response. #KofiAnnan sat quietly in the room, only listening. Suddenly, CNN broke the new: The US had already started the bombing campaign - completely disregarding the UNSC debate.
Lavrov, who was Russia's UN Ambassador at the time, was furious. Other States brutally criticized the US - in the private room of the Council. Later, in the public gathering, however, their criticism was much more muted, fearing US retaliation.

#KofiAnnan did the opposite.
