US seeking to secure UNSC greenlight for solutions on Gaza in its interests — diplomat
"Seeking to shield its closest Middle East ally, it is trying to secure, under the guise of alternative solutions, a United Nations Security Council blessing for solutions", which meet the United States’ geopolitical interests in the Middle East, Vasily Nebenzya said
UNITED NATIONS, February 23. /TASS/. By offering alternative solutions to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict at the United Nations Security Council, the United States is seeking to shield Israel and receive a greenlight to what is in its geopolitical interests in the Middle East, Russian Permanent Representative to the United Nations Vasily Nebenzya said.
"The Security Council has actually reached a consensus concerning the necessity to stop violence. There is only one delegation that is standing on the way of UN-brokered multilateral efforts - that of the United States. Seeking to shield its closest Middle East ally, it is trying to secure, under the guise of alternative solutions, a United Nations Security Council blessing for solutions, which are advantageous only for Israel, or, to be more precise, meet the United States’ geopolitical interests in the Middle East," he said at a UN Security Council meeting on the Middle East.
