U.S. Votes Against U.N. Resolution Condemning Russia Over Ukraine War

• https://www.activistpost.com, 21st Century Wire

The U.S. UN vote has sent tremors of this seismic shift and also rocked the Zelensky regime in Kiev amidst the Russia-Ukraine War. 

With the Trump administration making concerted moves to repair America's tattered relations with Moscow, Washington's efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine War, and NOT to condemn Russia, has put the rest of NATO on notice that Trump means business on Ukraine.

It's now clear that support for Ukraine in the Russia-Ukraine War is rapidly diminishing, with the latest voting results showing much lower votes in support of Ukraine – which had previously saw over 140 nations condemn Russia's aggression.

This is a major paradigm shift…

Washington Post reports…

The United States voted with Russia, North Korea, Belarus and 14 other Moscow-friendly countries Monday on a resolution condemning Russian aggression in Ukraine and calling for its occupied territory to be returned that passed overwhelmingly in the U.N. General Assembly on Monday amidst the ongoing Russia-Ukraine War.

The U.S. delegation also abstained on its own separate resolution that called simply for a negotiated end to the Russia-Ukraine War after European-sponsored amendments inserting new anti-Russian language also passed the 193-member body by a wide margin.

The votes were a clear sign of opposition by major U.S. allies as well as countries throughout the Global South who were prepared to buck heavy diplomatic pressure from the Trump administration to support President Donald Trump's efforts to quickly end the war through direct negotiations with Moscow.

A State Department official, speaking on the condition of anonymity about the fast-moving diplomacy, said the United States would introduce its resolution at a meeting of the 15-member U.N. Security Council later Monday and would veto any amendments.
