(UN News) A majority of UN member states voted in favor of a General Assembly resolution put forward by the U.S. on Thursday condemning the activities of Hamas and other militant groups in Gaza. While 87 voted in favor, 57 voted against, and 33 abstained, the measure was not adopted because, in a procedural vote held before the main vote on the resolution, it was decided to require a two-thirds majority for passage. The U.S. Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Nikki Haley, said that despite more than 500 General Assembly resolutions condemning Israel, not one condemning Hamas has ever been adopted. She described the two-thirds decision, which passed by just a handful of votes, as "unfair." 2018-12-07 00:00:00Full Article
