Literally don't care what she says.
The west engages in hypocrisy once again when they expect the global south to act perfect.
The "United Nations pontifcate"...that's a great phrase I don't think I've seen before.
With respect to your comment, though, aren't we all hypocrites to some degree? We all talk a better game than we actually play, and that is not unique to the West. It is a part of human nature. In fact, you could say that hypocrisy is the first step towards aspirational improvement. I also disagree that the West expects perfection from the global south. Far from it. If that were true, we wouldn't give aid to anyone. It seems to me like you are virtue signalling without thinking through your claims.
Virtue signalling: the act or practice of conspicuously displaying one's awareness of and attentiveness to political issues, matters of social and racial justice, etc.,
Virtue signalling is used by both left and right as a signifier of their political affiliation. You can recognize it by the fact that the signalled statement doesn't make any sense except as a political signifier. For example, people who say that Trump won the 2020 election when he obviously did not are either virtue signalling or are complete idiots.
