The United Nations is a battlefield where the smoke of gunpowder cannot be seen, and in this battlefield recently, China has won a "great victory," while the United States has been completely isolated, and finally has no choice but to give up. According to a CCTV news report on March 25, on the morning of the same day, at the initiative of China, the United Nations Security Council voted on a draft resolution on #Palestinian-Israeli conflict # proposed by Algeria, Guyana, Malta and other non-permanent members, and the result was that 14 permanent and non-permanent members, including China, Russia, Britain and France, voted unanimously in favor, and the United States was completely isolated and had no choice but to abstain, and the resolution was finally adopted. #MCN首发激励计划#
The adoption of this resolution is of great significance, as it is the first resolution adopted by the Security Council that explicitly calls for a ceasefire in Israel since the outbreak of a new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict on 7 October last year. The resolution calls for an "immediate ceasefire" during the Muslim holy month of Ramadan, which will culminate in a "lasting and sustainable ceasefire", while it also calls for "the immediate and unconditional release of all detainees", "the expansion of humanitarian assistance to civilians in the Gaza Strip" and the removal of "all obstacles to the passage of humanitarian assistance".
Obviously, the adoption of this resolution will exert tremendous pressure on Israel to cease fire, usher in a "timely rain" for the oppressed and aggressive Palestinian people, and hope that the serious humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip will be alleviated in the short term. It should be pointed out that although the draft resolution was submitted by Algeria, Malta and other countries, it was adopted by the UN Security Council at the initiative and support of China.
According to a report by the Observer Network on March 23, on the 22nd local time, the United Nations Security Council voted on a draft resolution submitted by the United States aimed at urging a ceasefire between Palestine and Israel, and the US draft was vetoed by China, Russia and Algeria 11 to 3. Zhang Jun, China's ambassador to the United Nations, made an "explanatory statement" on the rejection of the draft, saying that the US draft has "three inappropriates:(1) it does not call for an immediate ceasefire; (2) the US draft sets preconditions for a ceasefire, which is tantamount to "giving the green light to killing", and ;(3) the draft does not explicitly oppose Israel's attack on Rafah, sending a "very wrong signal".
After explaining why China, Russia, and Afghanistan vetoed the US draft, Ambassador Zhang Jun "changed his tune" and said very solemnly that "there is also a draft resolution before the members of the Security Council that has been collectively negotiated by the non-permanent members," and that "this draft has a clear-cut attitude on the issue of achieving a ceasefire, is in line with the correct direction of the Security Council's actions, and is of practical significance, and China supports it." "We hope that the members of the Security Council will reach an agreement on this and send a clear signal calling for an immediate ceasefire and an end to the fighting," Zhang Jun stressed.
That's right, the draft resolution that was unanimously adopted by the UN Security Council on March 25 with 14 votes to force the United States to abstain is the same draft resolution that the Chinese ambassador "fully recommended" to the UN Security Council on 22. It can be seen from the whole process that China not only "shot" the US draft resolution, but also allowed the draft resolution supported by China to be "unanimously adopted". Isn't this a great diplomatic victory? According to an Al Jazeera report on 26 March, after the passage of the draft pushed by the Chinese side, "warm applause" broke out in the Security Council chamber.
Of course, the United States is not willing to accept such a failure, on the one hand, it will make the superpower "very faceless"; on the other hand, the United States will not be able to account for Israel, and the Biden administration will not be able to face the Jewish consortium at home; so the US representative to the United Nations has clamored that the Security Council resolution on Gaza is "not binding on international law."
In response, UN General Assembly Secretary-General António Guterres' spokesman Haq said that "all Security Council resolutions are international law" and that "they are as binding as international law"; Palestinian Special Envoy Mansour also said that "Security Council resolutions are binding" and that "if Israel does not intend to implement them, then the Security Council will take punitive measures to make them comply with Security Council resolutions".
It is worth the great victory of the foreign exchange, the joy is overflowing, and the words are written in a word.
"Fisherman's Pride: Ceasefire Resolution"
The war in the Middle East has been raging for many years, and the people of Lebanon are suffering unspeakably. China has vigorously pushed for a ceasefire and hopes for peace talks, which has been praised by the United Nations.
The United States had no choice but to abstain from voting, and its hegemonic face was annoying. The voice of China spreads all over the world, the road of light, and the world is peaceful and co-created.
