    The US yesterday, October 18, vetoed a UN Security Council resolution calling for a “humanitarian pause” to “deliver life-saving aid to millions of Gazans.”

    .

    The UN press service reports this.

    While 12 of the 15 Council members voted in favor of the text proposed by Brazil, one (the United States) voted against and two (Russia and the United Kingdom) abstained, it said.

    A “no” vote by any of the five permanent members of the Security Council (China, France, Russia, Great Britain or the United States) terminates any action proposed to it.

    It is noted that US Ambassador Linda Thomas Greenfield explained the veto by saying that “this resolution did not mention Israel’s right to self-defense.”

    Israel has the right to self-defense, as reflected in Article 51 of the UN Charter, the ambassador added, noting that this right had been reaffirmed by the Security Council in previous resolutions on terrorist attacks, “and this resolution should have done the same.”

    She noted that while the US cannot support the resolution, it will continue to work closely with all members of the crisis council, “just as we will continue to emphasize the need to protect civilians, including members of the media, aid workers and UN officials.”

    The ambassador also noted that the United States is also involved in diplomacy on the ground, particularly referring to the visit of President Joe Biden and other officials.

    Yes, resolutions are important, and yes, this Council needs to speak up. But the actions we take must be based on facts on the ground and support direct diplomacy that can save lives, she stressed.
