[Regnum] The United States, by its decision to veto in the UN Security Council a resolution on an immediate ceasefire in the Middle East, pronounced a sentence on the civilian population in Israel and Palestine, First Deputy Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN Dmitry Polyansky said on December 8.

“Once again, cynically blocking the call for a ceasefire in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict zone, our colleagues from the United States, before our very eyes, imposed a death sentence on thousands, if not tens of thousands, of civilians in Palestine and Israel, including women and children, as well as UN employees trying to help them,” said the Russian diplomat.

Polyansky emphasized that today will be one of the darkest days in the history of the Middle East.

The cynically repeated empty words about democracy, human rights, women, peace and security, some kind of rules and order only indicate that the real price can be seen now, when two members of the UN Security Council chose to remain accomplices in the ruthless Israeli massacre, the deputy permanent representative noted .

As Regnum reported, on December 8, the United States vetoed a UAE resolution in the UN Security Council demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities in the Gaza Strip and the release of all hostages without preconditions.

The project, co-sponsored by 98 countries, was supported by 13 delegations, the United States spoke out against it, and representatives of Great Britain abstained. Russia and China were among those who voted for the adoption of the document.
Good for America. It says something that I was not sure the Biden administration would continue the long-standing American tradition of not allowing the world to run too roughshod over Israel.
