apnews.com/article/united-nations-us-vote-gaza-ceasefire-resolution-f6453803b3eacc9fbaa2ce5a025e2a94
Quick Glance: Russia and China Veto US Cease-Fire Resolution
- Russia and China vetoed a U.S.-sponsored UN resolution on Friday calling for an immediate and sustained cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza to protect civilians and enable humanitarian aid for over 2 million hungry Palestinians.
- The resolution reflected a shift in U.S. stance, diverging from much of the world's push for an unconditional end to the fighting.
- While the resolution would have been officially binding, it would not have stopped the fighting or released hostages, but it would have increased pressure on Israel as its closest ally aligns more with global calls for a cease-fire.
- The Security Council had passed two resolutions on the worsening humanitarian situation in Gaza, but none had called for a cease-fire.

Quick Glance: Resignation Due to US Support for Israel
- A senior official at the State Department resigned in protest against the almost impossible promotion of human rights due to US support for Israel's war in Gaza.
- Annelle Sheline, aged 38, announced her resignation while still in the middle of her two-year contract with the US Department of State as a foreign affairs officer in the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor.

- These resignations are the latest in a series of public protests against the Biden administration's support for Israel, leading to internal turmoil within the US State Department.

Quick Glance: Bank of England Set to Maintain Interest Rates Amid Inflation Signs
- The Bank of England is expected to keep interest rates unchanged this week as it looks for clearer signs that pay growth and services inflation are cooling sufficiently to allow for a cut in interest rates.
- Pricing in the swaps market indicates that the first downward move is likely to occur in August, with additional cuts by the end of the year.
- Steady monetary policy from the BoE, Fed, and ECB signifies that they will lower rates only when there is enough evidence of sustained inflation decline.
- The BoE continues to monitor wage growth and services price increases closely, with pressure for rate cuts expected to rise as consumer price inflation rapidly declines towards the 2 percent target.

Quick Glance: Significant Donations for Biden at Election Fundraiser in NYC
- A fundraising event for President Joe Biden in New York City, featuring Barack Obama and Bill Clinton, raised an impressive $25 million, setting a record for the highest fundraising amount for a political gathering, according to his campaign.
- The upcoming event at Radio City Music Hall will serve as a prominent highlight following a recent series of campaign travels by the president. Biden's visits to various political battlegrounds in the weeks since his State of the Union address have emphasized his bid for reelection. Furthermore, the event will bring together more than thirty years of Democratic leadership.
- With varying levels of access based on donors' generosity, the event will feature a significant aspect, an on-stage discussion among the three presidents, moderated by late-night host Stephen Colbert. Additionally, a lineup of musical talents, including Queen Latifah, Lizzo, Ben Platt, Cynthia Erivo, and Lea Michele, will be hosted by actress Mindy Kaling. Attendance is expected to be high, with ticket prices starting as low as $225.
- The support of Obama and Clinton is assisting Biden in further strengthening his substantial financial lead over Trump. As of the end of February, Biden had $155 million in available funds, in contrast to Trump's $37 million and his Save America political action committee.
