Russian Representative Brands U.S. Gaza Resolution Deceptive

According ⁢to the English section of webangah News Agency,citing TASS via Mehr News Agency,following​ the United Nations Security​ Council ‍vote on the US resolution concerning⁣ gaza,Vasily ⁣Nebenzya,Russia’s permanent representative to the UN,described the adoption process as deceptive and warned of ⁢its consequences.

Nebenzya stated that unlike the previous US administration’s proposal-which did not mention ‍”disarming Gaza” or “extensive coercive measures”-the new resolution imposes tasks on deployed forces that risk turning them into active participants in the conflict rather ⁤than ‌neutral peacekeepers. He emphasized that ‍none of the countries willing ⁣to contribute troops have accepted such​ conditions.

The Russian envoy also remarked that Security Council members​ lacked sufficient time for a thorough review and consensus-building ​over this text and were effectively subjected to “time pressure.”

The security Council session took ⁣place Monday night in New York (early Tuesday morning Tehran time) to discuss two draft resolutions proposed by ⁤the⁣ US and Russia regarding the Gaza Strip. The Council ‌approved its resolution on Gaza with 13 votes in⁤ favor.

Thirteen members​ voted in favor of‍ the US draft resolution ‍concerning ‌Gaza, while Russia and China abstained.
