About this listen
In this episode of Expert Witness, Middle East Eye news editor Sondos Asem speaks to Martin Griffiths, the former UN aid chief to discuss the latest in Gaza and Sudan, where two of the worst humanitarian crises in the world have been taking place over the past two years. Griffiths had over fifty years of professional experience as a humanitarian, British diplomat and conflict mediator with the United Nations and other global institutions. He has served as the UN’s Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, which is the top humanitarian aid position at the United Nations. In this capacity he served for three years between July 2021 and July 2024, under the leadership of Secretary General Antonio Guterres. He presided over the UN’s humanitarian aid efforts in the first nine months of Israel’s devastating onslaught on Gaza, widely considered a genocide.
