Charles Petrie
Charles Petrie is a former UN official who rose to the rank of Assistant Secretary General before resigning from the organization in 2010. He has had close to thirty years’ experience working in contexts of conflict and famine, some of it with Médecins Sans Frontières and Care International (Mali and areas under the control of the Eritrean People’s Liberation Front) and much of it with the UN system (Sudan, Somalia, Rwanda (during the 1994 Genocide), the Middle East, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Afghanistan).
The Triumph of Evil
The Triumph of Evil centers around two United Nations officials. One is a Rwandan who is accused, during the 1994 genocide, of having commandeered UN assets and having been involved in the killing of at least 32 people, including UN colleagues. The other is Charles Petrie, a French/British national, who with a small group of associates attempted to force the United Nations to bring this man to account for his actions.
