Zeid Al Hussein
Zeid Al Hussein has chosen to step down as the United Nations Human Rights Commissioner. Was he too vocal to be effective in promoting human rights or is that what the job demands?
The United Nations Human Rights Commissioner, Zeid Al Hussein, is stepping down in August after four years in the post having said he doesn't want a second term. In an exclusive interview the veteran Jordanian diplomat tells Zeinab Badawi why he didn't want to stay in the job.
