The United States vetoed the Security Council resolution for a ceasefire in Gaza

According to Fars News Agency, the United States of America vetoed the United Nations Security Council resolution to establish an immediate ceasefire in Gaza minutes ago.

13 members The council voted in favor of this resolution. Britain abstained and the United States vetoed it.

The vote on this resolution was postponed due to the efforts of several Arab countries to persuade the United States to refuse to veto it. .

A few hours ago, the Bloomberg news website reported that the Arab countries are making the last efforts to join the United States in establishing a ceasefire in Gaza.

The foreign minister of Jordan made these statements along with the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, Turkey and the Palestinian Authority.

Robert E. Wood, the US deputy representative to the United Nations, said at the Security Council meeting that Washington does not support calls for an immediate ceasefire. He claimed that such an action sows the seeds of the next war.

Since the beginning of Israel’s military attacks in Gaza, America has been the main supporter of this regime and by sending weapons and political support, it has helped fuel the war.

In the weeks leading up to the war, Joe Biden’s administration had said that the White House would only support “ceasefires” in Gaza, and was in favor of continuous calls for help in establishing a ceasefire in Gaza. The cease-fire that can end in favor of Hamas is not.

Meanwhile, human rights activists and some politicians of the Democratic Party have repeatedly asked Biden to ask Israel to end the operation that killed thousands. Paul O’Brien of Amnesty International said on Wednesday last week: “Short-term interruptions to meet field needs and address the human rights situation in Gaza are sufficient.” “More and more Americans are calling for this ceasefire,” he said. According to the results of a recent survey conducted by the Morning Consult Institute, 53% of American voters said that they support the establishment of a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. On the 7th of October (15th of October), it led to the martyrdom of more than 17,000 Palestinians in Gaza, most of whom are civilians. . These statistics are increasing especially with the expansion of the Israeli regime’s operations to the southern Gaza region. For two decades, the siege of Gaza and the imprisonment and torture of thousands of Palestinians began the operation known as “Al-Aqsa Storm”. This operation was one of the deadliest attacks against this regime. Hamas fighters penetrated into the occupied territories at several points of the border fences, attacked villages and besides killing a large number of Israelis, captured a number of them.
