UN: UN members supported a resolution supporting Ukraine’s territorial integrity on Monday in view of strong opposition from Washington, which pushed its language forward, which blaming Russia of war or Kiev’s borders. Refused to mention.
Since US President Donald Trump won a new position on the Ukraine War, a European -backed text that got 93 votes on the third anniversary of the conflict and got 18 votes against it, which more than 65 I decreased.
Washington supported Moscow as well as Russian ally Belarus, North Korea and Sudan. This text – which gained little support than the previous resolution on the war – has strongly criticized Russia, and emphasizes Ukraine’s territorial integrity and its borders.
Washington drafted a rival resolution during a fierce dispute between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Wolodmeer Zelinsky. The Russian ambassador to the United Nations called the US text “a step in the right direction” while the United States suddenly melted between Trump and the United States.
But Washington’s ally France amended the US text, saying that with Paris, European countries and the United Kingdom, “it would not be able to support it in its current form.”
All Ukrainian supporters called for describing the US text, saying that Russia had “a completely attack on Ukraine”. Hungary, whose Prime Minister Victor and Bin are seen as the most Putin leader in Europe, voted against these amendments.
These amendments also confirmed Ukraine’s commitment to “regional integrity” – which was excluded from the US text. The US proposal was so amended so much that Washington eventually avoided its text.
Ukraine’s territorial integrity was the basis for the previous resolutions adopted by the Humanitarian Assembly, the former president, who was one of its strong supporters, under Biden.
“Washington’s envoy to Washington’s envoy said,” The attempt to add that language is trying to get it with a waiting solution. ” After the General Assembly’s vote, Washington is expected to vote for his text to the Security Council at the end of Monday, in which a State Department official has warned that the United States amended any amendment to Russia or Europeans. Will veto.
UN mechanics mean that the Washington could not veto the amendments brought to the General Assembly. To be adopted by the UNSC, a resolution needs at least nine out of 15 members of the Security Council – while five permanent members, namely the United States, France, Russia and China. Did not veto.
Even if the Council with the UK had to avoid members of the European Union from France, Slovenia, Denmark and Greece, the US resolution could still be passed. This will raise the question of whether France or the United Kingdom will be ready to run their first veto for more than 30 years.
His related leaders, Emmanuel Macron and Kerr Star, are visiting the White House this week for key talks on Ukraine. Richard Guan of the international crisis group Richard Guan told AFP, “I don’t see how Paris and London can support the text that is far from the positions he described about Ukraine, but I Don’t even see how they can veto it. “
For European people, competitive votes will be a test of their position in the multilateral system. ” At the same time, Kiev can be left “fast isolated” if his help is low, Gwan said. With the basic principles of international law, UN Chief Antonio Guterres called a peace on Sunday that “maintains Ukraine’s territorial integrity” and respects the UN Charter.
