International human rights lawyer and political commentator Edward Corrigan says Bahrain’s absence for a vote at the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) on a resolution condemning Israeli violations in the occupied territories reflects public anger over normalization of ties with Tel Aviv.
“I am very sure that the vast majority of people in Bahrain do not support this decision to sell out Palestinians. I believe that the decision to be absent at the vote is a reflection of the lack of support for this decision in Bahrain,” Corrigan said in an exclusive interview with Press TV .
