Even more the US allies declared their own disapproval of his decision.Nikki
Haley the US representative in United Nation in an attempt also vetoed the UN
resolution supporting Quds. Having done this action, Trump showed that he is not
determined to retract his decision. But it was not the whole story. The United
Nation general assembly assertively stood against the Trump’s decision. The UN
also approved a resolution protocol to refuse to make any changes in Quds
current situation by a decisive vote of 128 to 9, with 35 abstentions. This
resolution strongly decries and refuses any probable changes if made to Quds
structure. It also insists that any structural changes on this city not be made
or cancelled in advance. Furthermore; based on this resolution the US
recognition of Quds as the Zionist regime’s capital was severely condemned.
Previously the United State had vetoed Egypt’s offered bill about Quds. In that
bill offered by Egypt had stated that Quds issues needed to be settled only
through talks and any decision or acts regarding that made or done by the US
which leads to some changes in this city structure or nature is legally
considered a violation of law and has no legal value or credit. If done, it
should be reverted to its primary state based on the UN resolutions. However,
the main point regarding this issue is the US isolation in UN. The US along with
Canada, Zionist regime, The Czech Republic, Marshall Islands, Federates State of
Micronesia, Nauru, Belau and Panama were the only ones which gave a nay vote to
this resolution. Some US main and close allies including The UK and France opted
not to accompany the US regarding Quds issue. This could be deemed as a great
hit of Trumps to the US position in the world. Because the UN is basically an
American Organization .Plus, the US billions of dollars spent on this unit have
vastly influenced the UNʼS decision in favor of Washington’s interests.
Nevertheless, Trump’s attempt to call Quds as the capital of Zionist regime not
only had lots of disapprovals with it, but also did blemish the US image in UN.
On the threshold of the UN urgent meeting Nikki Haley officially announced that
if anyone decides to vote against Zionist regime should be expecting the US
harsh reaction. Benjamin Netanyahu the Zionist regime prime minister before
polling and approving the resolution in the UN general assembly meeting in Quds
subject. He showed reactions and called the UN the house of lie. However,
Zionist regime paper Haaretz wrote that: This UN action has provoked Zionist
regime’s resentment and was an overwhelming slap on Trump’s face (a response to
his ill-advised decision).
CNN also reported that both U.S and Zionist regime have remained isolated
regarding Quds issue and in their foreign policy. A leading point regarding this
resolution is that the US seems to have lost its status in the UN and even was
unable to prevent the bill from being approved with its bully and threatening
language. It should be said that the UN decisions are not specifically
warrantied to be implemented. They should be verified and approved by the
Security Council as well. Since Trump’s decision regarding Quds was not accepted
and approved by a large number of states we can conclude that his policies have
inflicted a defeat. There are some indications that we should be waiting for
emerge of a new age. An age that the US has lost its erstwhile status and can
never play the role of a superpower or influential country. This can be an end
to the world’s monopolar system which indicates a new isolated and weakened US
in the world.
