The United States delegation left the UN Security Council chamber on Monday during remarks by French Ambassador Jérôme Bonnafont at a meeting on Russia's war in Ukraine. France's Geneva mission posted on X criticizing the US vote against reappointing UN human rights chief Volker Türk and linking the US to North Korea, Nicaragua, Mali, and Russia. Deputy US Ambassador Dan Negrea responded by stating the US would not listen to French statements until France renounced condescending rhetoric.
