The United Nations General Assembly voted in favor of Palestinian annexation, blocked by a US veto

The UN General Assembly voted overwhelmingly on Friday, May 10, to support the Palestinians’ request for membership in the organization. However, the resolution is already symbolic due to the US veto issued in the Security Council on April 18. A resolution that the Palestinians hope to have “must be allowed on the system” and giving them some additional rights as observers, received 143 votes in favor and nine votes against (Argentina, Czech Republic, Hungary, Israel, Micronesia, Nauru, Palau, Papua New Guinea and USA) and 25 did not vote. The Palestinians already have “non-member observer state” status, but because of the conflict in the Gaza Strip, the admission process has been restarted.
