The Human Rights Council was deserted as Russia's Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov spoke earlier.
Ambassadors and Ministers from 50 countries walked out or left an empty chair.
The message was clear: Russia is isolated.

It’s Holocaust Memorial Day. This year, I’m thinking of a woman called Sulamita Szapiro. Here she is as a student. We weren’t related and I don’t even know much about her, but I’m pretty sure that remembering her still falls to me. This is a thread about why.
