Prof. Ní Aoláin Co-Authors Op-Ed in The Washington Post About Saudi Arabia’s Counterterrorism Efforts

Professor Fionnuala Ní Aoláin co-authored an op-ed in The Washington Post with Bob Graham—former Democratic U.S. Senator from Florida who chaired the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence and co-chaired the 9/11 commission—analyzing the nature of Saudi Arabia’s counterterrorism efforts. Building on a report released by the Financial Action Task Force of the Group of Seven countries, Ní Aoláin and Graham emphasize the need for the country to focus more “on terrorism and demonstrated progress in prosecuting terrorism financing outside the region.” Professor Ní Aoláin currently serves as a U.N. special rapporteur on the promotion of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism.
