nations general assembly. it s expected to speak to the 193 member body tomorrow, rallying support for ukraine as that country continues to fight back russian forces. the white house says biden will lay out his plan for american foreign policy at the un as he juggles a number of other items on the home front, and ongoing immigration situation at the border. rogue republican governors, looming midterms, and the end by the middle of a pandemic. joining us now is karine jean-pierre, the white house press secretary who is here in new york with president biden s u. s. delegation to the un general assembly. kareem, welcome to new york. thank you for having me. congratulations on the show. thank. you congratulations to you. congrats all around. i want to talk about the rogue republican governors first because today, governor ron desantis in florida, it was reported them, there was a suggestion he might be flying a plane of migrants to president biden s home state of delaware. that plane
to do that. sean. spot on. as a democrat party that implemented and wants to pass the green new deal, an attack on oil and gas in america. shut down when prices go up they want to not blame bernie sanders, aoc and joe biden but the energy executives? let s put the blame where it belongs in democrat policies. if you buy a gas or electric car. when you shut down pipelines, no permits for pipelines. or the leases that you have. the leases harris: i have to step in. we have breaking fuss right now and regardless of that richard, he let you talk, all right? we ll practice relationships later. thank you for being here. here it is. the u.n. general assembly just voted to remove russia from its human rights council. the 47 member body needed a 2/3 vote to pass it.
it is a fascinating divide. in terms of what the impact for that un in terms of the security council i wonder if you can help us understand where the human rights council and how that fits in with the un itself and the greater scheme of things. the human rights council is based in geneva and the whole idea is that the members who are elected by their counterparts, the 47 member body is supposed to shine a light on some of the worst violations of human rights around the world. and a member can be suspended if they violate that. we have rationale, they will not be able to vote, they will not be able to speak in the human rights council sessions any more and while the human rights council is not legally binding place in the same way the security council and their resolutions are legally binding they

of their ministers are on the u.n. black list for terrorism, mass murder and other offenses. so again the u.n. member body will have to vote in eventually who is recognized. but in is a place where the u.s., our u.s. ambassador to the u.n. should rally other countries not to support the recognition of the taliban at the u.n. this is a real diplomatic opportunity. bill: quickly on that, marie. i think the u.n. did the right thing here. they should not recognize the taliban as a legitimate government. the reality on the ground, bill, is the reality on the ground. if we have ways to pursue our interests in afghanistan going forward, it is unfortunately going to have to involve dealing with the taliban. the u.n. did the right thing here. they made a statement to the world that they don t recognize this hostile takeover of the government. bill: thank you. nice to see you on a monday. dana: the end of an era in germany with merkel stepping down after 16 years.
