United States (USA), Russia, Hungary, North Korea or Israel are some of the 18 countries that on Monday rejected one of the resolutions of the General Assembly of the UN Regarding the Russian invasion to Ukraine that he fulfilled Your third anniversary. A text presented by Ukraine and Copatrocinated by almost all countries of the European Union (EU) and that did have the support of 93 countries, as well as the abstention of 65 countries.
In it the aggression to Kyiv was condemned, in addition to requesting the withdrawal of the Russian troops and, nevertheless, it had a lower support from that offered to a resolution in similar terms in 2022 and 2023 which harvested the support of 141 countries. In this way, not only the effect of the arrival of the US president is observed Donald Trump that has even described as “Dictator” to his Ukrainian counterpartin addition to continuing with its attempt to prevent Russia from becoming history as the country “aggressor”.
It is true that both Belarus and Hungary have always shown positions very similar to those of Vladimir Putin In Europe and most issues, however, the rejection of this resolution demonstrates a growing alignment with the Kremlin, in which North Korea also participates. For example, the latter did not hesitate to support Russia with the Sending your troops to fight Ukraine.
Israel’s presence in this group of ‘colleagues’ is not surprising either. In fact, it was the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahuthe first international leader who visited the Republican in the White House in this second term. A meeting that caused the tycoon to propose the Mass displacement of Gazatis To clean the Gaza Strip and Build the “Riviera de Oriente”.
USA, in the end he goes out with his
While the rejection of these countries to the resolution did not exempt him from being ahead, the USA did sign up somewhat this Monday at the UN Security Council. There he managed to approve another text about the Ukraine War that, however, had previously rejected the General Assembly. A resolution, which could be one of the shortest that is remembered, mentions a “Conflict between Ukraine and the Russian Federation”“implore a rapid end to conflict” and “urgently urgently.” Of course, no concepts such as “invasion” or “war.”
In this case, the text obtained the support of ten countries, including Russia, China and the African and Asian countries of the Council, while the five European countries abstained and both France and the United Kingdom refused to use their veto right , they could have used voting against. Just this Monday The Gallic President met at the White House with Trumpwhile British Prime Minister Keir Starmer He will also do it this week.
Of course, the session was preceded by two energetic speeches from both countries about the need for differentiate between aggressor and attacked in Ukraineand the requirement that the resolution gathered respect for territorial integrity and sovereignty of Ukraine, but none of that happened, and the time of truth both countries opted for abstention, like the rest of Europeans (Denmark, Slovenia and Greece).
In this way, the defeat of the United States in the assembly Monday morning – when the text was ‘decaffeinated’ by the numerous amendments of Ukraine – it was somehow corrected by what happened in the afternoon, which is a victory for the new line undertaken by the Trump administration in relation to Ukraine.
In any case, what happened on Monday, both in the Assembly and in the Council, has implemented with crudeness the deep differences between USA and their once European allieswith those that are already faced by other issues that range from dutyterritorial claims (Greenland) and the political interference of Washington in several European countries.
In 2022 and 2023, the votes in favor of Ukraine were overwhelming, achieving both times 141 favorable votes (of the 193 UN members), but what happened on Monday demonstrates that support for Ukraine evaporates outside the territory of the union European (EU), where there are also protrusous dissidents such as Hungary. It is not clear what the vote on Monday will mean on the Council, since its resolutions They are bindingunlike those of the assembly, which are merely symbolic
