Its beyond satire really...

The UN has just appointed (by acclamation - there were no other candidates put forward) the Ambassador from Saudi Arabia to he'd up the UN Commission that is supposed to promote women's rights across the world & empower women politically....

Given the grudging, uneven & slow progress on such empowerment in his own state, the notion that this can possibly be a positive more for global women is beyond belief.

@ChrisMayLA6 Do they do this stuff on purpose to get a rise out of the general populace?

@fkamiah17

see just posted answer; there's a plausible interpretation that tis is part of developed countries undermining of the UN's position in global affairs....

@ChrisMayLA6 That makes sense 100%. You beat me to the best seat in cynics' corner 😂

If Japan can chair the anti-whaling group and Morocco the human rights group, I suppose this is par for the course.
