It is sad that the United Nations became just a "club for people
to get together” and have a good time despite a huge potential of the
organization, US President-elect Donald Trump said.
The United Nations has such great potential but right now it is just
a club for people to get together, talk and have a good time. So sad!
On Friday, the UN Security Council passed the resolution in a 14-0
vote, with the only abstention from the United States. The resolution
states that Israel should immediately and completely cease all
settlement activities on "occupied Palestinian territory," including in
East Jerusalem. Israeli authorities criticized the resolution and
refused to abide by its provisions.
Later in the day, Trump said in a statement that Washington would change
its policy toward Israel at the United Nations after he assumes
presidency.
Over 500,000 Israeli settlers live in East Jerusalem and the West Bank,
which Israel captured during the 1967 war. The settlements are
considered illegal by the United Nations.
