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.

Quick Glance: Petro and Maduro reconcile after dispute over María Corina Machado's electoral disqualification

The presidents of Colombia and Venezuela demonstrated unity following a diplomatic row over the disqualification of the most prominent opposition candidate for the Venezuelan presidential election.

The resumption of relations between Colombia and Venezuela was focused on economic interests despite existing disagreements.

The conflict between Petro and Maduro regarding the elections in Venezuela has shifted economic matters to the background.

The diplomatic impasse has been overcome, evident not only in the meeting of foreign ministers but also in other actions like the reopening of consulates.

Manuel Rocha, a former US ambassador, sentenced to 15 years for serving as secret agent for Cuba

apnews.com/article/manuel-rocha-spy-cuba-guilty-plea-8fd30500f4588129a195daaf2d720c13

Quick Glance: Former US Ambassador Sentenced for Spying for Cuba

Former US ambassador Manuel Rocha was sentenced to 15 years in prison after admitting to working as a secret agent for Cuba for decades.

Rocha accepted the penalty and paid a $500,000 fine after pleading guilty to acting on behalf of a foreign government.

The swift criminal case avoided a trial that would have revealed the extent of Rocha's assistance to Cuba while working for the US State Department for twenty years.

The sophistication of Cuban intelligence services was highlighted as Rocha's double-crossing went undetected for years, demonstrating his secret meetings with Cuban operatives and provision of false information to US officials.

Quick Glance: Israel artist calls for Gaza ceasefire

The representative of Israel at the international art fair is calling for an immediate ceasefire in Israel’s war on Gaza.

Ruth Patir’s video installation called (M)otherland was scheduled to open on Saturday at Israel’s national pavilion at the international art show but will remain closed for now.

Patir stated on her website that the artist and curators are showing solidarity with the families of the hostages and the large community in Israel calling for change, rather than canceling themselves or the exhibition.

It is believed that there are still individuals in Gaza, including 129 captives taken during the attacks led by Hamas on Israel on October 7, with 34 of them presumed dead.

Quick Glance: Poland demands apology from Israeli ambassador after Gaza attack

Israel's ambassador in Poland, Yacov Livne, has apologized for the Gaza strike that killed seven aid workers, including Polish national Damian Soból.

Polish figures criticized Livne for not issuing an apology earlier, including President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Donald Tusk.

Despite criticisms, Deputy Foreign Minister Andrzej Szejna confirmed that Livne will not be expelled from Poland.

Poland calls for a transparent investigation into the incident and adequate compensation for the family of the deceased Pole.

Quick Glance: USA Provides Ukraine with Long-Range ATACMS Missiles

The USA delivered short-range ATACMS missiles with extended range to Ukraine to protect the country.

The delivery was discreet, part of an aid package to maintain Ukraine's operational security.

The USA previously provided ATACMS missiles with a range of 165 km last year, now supplying missiles with up to 300 km range.

Germany rejects providing the Taurus missile while the USA offers extensive aid to Ukraine.

They met in Phoenix to sign a certificate declaring Trump had won the state. The document was sent to Congress and the National Archives but ignored.

The Arizona charges follow indictments against fake electors in Nevada, Michigan, and Georgia.

The charges allege conspiracy, fraud, and forgery as they falsely declared Trump as the winner in Arizona despite Biden's victory by over 10,000 votes.
