Quote of the Moment
“It is not Gration’s responsibility as U.S. special envoy to Sudan to play the role of the UN Undersecretary for Humanitarian Affairs in Darfur. But his role must certainly include speaking honestly about humanitarian realities as they exist, not as is convenient for obtaining a diplomatic post. In responding to the acute suffering of innocent civilians, he falls well short of what we have a right to expect of our representatives abroad. Gration’s consistent missteps, miscalculations, and disingenuousness make him unfit to be ambassador to Kenya. The Obama administration should withdraw its nomination. In the absence of such withdrawal, the Senate should vote against his confirmation.”
- Eric Reeves, “The Senate Should Not Confirm Scott Gration as U.S. Ambassador to Kenya”
