U.N. rejects U.S. resolution on Ukraine war that downplayed Russian role
Read Original Source
In a win for Ukraine as it marks three years since Russia's full-scale invasion, the United States on Monday failed to get the U.N. General Assembly to approve its resolution urging an end to the war without mentioning Moscow's aggression. And the assembly approved a dueling European-backed Ukrainian resolution demanding Russia immediately withdraw from Ukraine.
AI Summary
Main Idea: The U.N. General Assembly rejected a U.S. resolution on the Ukraine war that did not name Russia, while approving a separate Ukraine-backed measure calling for Russian withdrawal.
Key Points:
- The U.S. proposal failed after the assembly added language saying Russia invaded Ukraine, and the United States then abstained.
- The Ukraine-backed resolution passed, but with fewer votes than earlier U.N. votes that had shown stronger support for Ukraine.
- The vote highlighted a split between the Trump administration and Ukraine, as well as wider tension with European allies.
- The U.N. Security Council was also expected to consider the competing U.S. resolution, but Russia’s veto power has kept that body stalled on the war.
