It is the first time the UN chief has invoked the article since taking office in 2017, and the first time any secretary-general has made use of it since 1989.
Today, the Secretary-General has reached a new moral low, writes Erdan in a tweet. The Secretary-General decided to activate this rare clause only when it allows him to put pressure on Israel, which is fighting the Nazi Hamas terrorists. This is more proof of the Secretary-Generals moral distortion and his bias against Israel.
