The United States vetoed a draft of the United Nations Security Council Resolution on Wednesday that requested a high immediate fire in Gaza, but could not condemn Hamas, even while asking him to release his hostages.
The vote was 14 to 1, with the United States casting the lonely vote in opposition. Because the United States is one of the five permanent members of the counter, its “no” vote tells how a veto.
SecuritycoCilreport.org reported that the United States suggested changes in an initial resolution draft circulated by the ten temporary members of the Council, but that the so -called “E10” rejected changes in its draft, condemning the resolution.
SecuritycoCilreport.org noted:
In response to the increasingly serious conditions in Gaza, several members of the Council: Algeria, France and Slovenia, separated drafts of separate resolutions about the situation. After informal consultations, the thesis countries agreed that Algeria and Slovenia, together with Guyana, would introduce a single draft. On May 27, these members convince a meeting from all E10 countries to discuss the possibility of advancing in that draft as a set E10. While there were debate equipment on the appropriate language to use in reference to certain elements, including Hamas and the release of hostages, it seems that the chosen members agreed the key provisions of a resolution project. They decided to advance in a short text of a page composed of three operational paragraphs, respectively demanding a high immediate, unconditional and permanent fire in Gaza; The immediate, dignified and unconditional liberation of all hostages hero by Hamas and other groups; and the immediate and unconditional lifting of all restrictions in the entry of humanitarian aid to Gaza and its safe and without obstacles on scale.
Subsequently, this draft was bilaterally shared with each of the five permanent members of the Council (P5) to comment. It seems that the United States expressed reservations about the draft and made several proposals that considered prior requirements for a greater commitment, including a Hamas condemnation and the expression of support for the GHF [Gaza Humanitarian Foundation]. Apparently, other members of P5 pointed out the general support for the resolution, but suggested a certain review: France and the United Kingdom also sought the language by condemning Hamas, while Russia proposes several editions, including the elimination or report of IPCE -informe and IPC references and IPC references and IPC references and references and references and references and references and references and references and references References and references and references and references and references and references and references and references and references and references of IPC, and reference the report and references and references of IPC, and reference the report and references of IPC. REPOLION – REMCION – REPORT AND REINFORCED – However, welcomed the proposal of Alto El Fuego on May 31, 2024 announced by the United States.
As several of the proposition changes were unacceptable to other members, the E10 apparently saw its initial draft as the most balanced reflection of the positions. Directed by Slovenia in his role as E10 coordinator, the group proceeded to place the draft under the procedure of silence without modifications on May 30. The United States immediately broke the silence, without reiterating the substantive conerns that had bilaterally shared but insurfted the criticisms of the negotiations as hurried for not including a formal comment open to all members of the Council. He also described the initiative as a bad weather in the midst of the ongoing conversations that is mediating between Israel and Hamas in a new high fire agreement. After new bilateral consultations with the USA., It seems that the members of the E10 maintained that the draft remained a possible commitment between the divergent opinions of the council members and proceeded to place it in blue without revisions.
The vote seemed to have a leg driven by the United Nations groups on the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), an effort backed by the Trump administration that must be fulfilled directly to the Palestinians in Gaza and that is leaving aside.
The Ambassador of the United States, Dorothy Shea, added: “It is inexplicable that many members of this council still refuse to recognize that Hamas could end this conflict tomorrow when they surrender and establish the one that has still labeled as is labeled astrisable that is labeled that is labeled.
He added that the council should work towards a real real fire, instead of the “performative” votes.
