Quick Glance: US Blocks UN Resolution for Palestinian Full Membership

In the Security Council, 12 countries voted for a UN resolution recommending full Palestinian membership, with the US opposing and two countries abstaining.

The US argued that Palestinian membership should result from negotiations between Israel and Palestinians to enable a two-state solution.

The Palestinian delegation emphasized that UN membership is a crucial step for peace in the region and criticized the Israeli government for its rejection.

Israel rejected the resolution and warned of its potential impact on future dialogues, especially in light of the recent escalation of violence in Gaza.
