UN General Assembly adopted a resolution on the situation in the Middle East

Fortunately, the UN General Assembly is a powerless talkshop, so this vote may make the winners feel good but is otherwise meaningless.
[Regnum] During the tenth emergency special session for the protection of the Palestinian people, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution on the Middle East, developed by a group of Arab countries with the support of Russia.
Russia appears to have reached the point of knee-jerk opposition to America as a matter of principal.
The document was submitted for consideration by representatives of Jordan.

120 states, including Russia, voted for the resolution. 14 countries did not support the resolution, and another 45 abstained.

As Regnum reported, Russia's permanent representative to the UN , Vasily Nebenzya , previously said that the Security Council of the world organization could not prevent the further aggravation of the situation in the Middle East, now it is up to the General Assembly.

The document prepared by Arab countries states that the UN General Assembly calls for an immediate ceasefire and requires all parties to comply with obligations under humanitarian law, including the protection of civilians and civilian objects. The project provides for the immediate, long-term and unhindered delivery of necessary goods and services to the Gaza Strip. Access to Gaza should also be ensured for UN and other humanitarian workers. A group of Arab countries is pushing for the lifting of Israel's order for Gazans to move to the south of the strip.

The Kremlin noted on October 24 that the foundation for resolving the conflict in the Middle East should be the creation of an independent Palestine. Russian President Vladimir Putin said earlier that Israel was subjected to a brutal attack and has the right to protection, but the Palestinian issue must be resolved through peaceful means, and it is necessary to return to the UN formula for the creation of a Palestinian state with its capital in East Jerusalem.
