UN FAO says antisemitic goodwill ambassador no longer associated with organization

I received this response to my inquiry from the UN FAO about Majida el-Roumi, their singer who harbors antisemitic opinions:

Dear Elder,

Thank you for contacting us.

Please note that, as of July 2015, Mrs El Roumi is no longer an FAO Goodwill Ambassador and her comments do not reflect FAO’s values and principles.

Regards,

FAO Goodwill Ambassadors team
This may or may not be true; I cannot find any more recent mention of her on the FAO website.

But her biography on her personal website still proudly says that she is the goodwill ambassador for FAO.
