Palestine Considers Resorting to Security Council over UNRWA Funding Cut
| That would be the UN Security Council, where the United States of America has veto power? Clever. |
[ASHARQ] Palestinians, the United Nations and the Arab League have widely condemned the US administration's decision to suspend United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) funding and vowed to confront it in all ways, while Israel welcomed the decision.
President Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian leadership are considering going to the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) | ... a powerless talk shop ... |
and the Security Council
| ...where President Trump’s America has a permanent seat and the previously mentioned veto power... |
to challenge the US decision stopping all aid to the UNRWA, in order to take the necessary measures to prevent getting the situation out of hand,
| Too late. But since y’all have been denouncing everything Trump, you might not have noticed ... |
said presidential spokesman Nabil Abu Rudeineh on Saturday.
“This US decision does not serve peace, but rather promotes terrorism in the region and is also an attack on the rights of the Palestinian people,” Abu Rudeineh said, pointing out that this decision is only one in a series of decisions and policies that are hostile to the Palestinian people.
