00:00Welcome back.
00:02The US government vetoed on Wednesday a United Nations Security Council resolution demanding
00:06a ceasefire in Palestine and the release of hostages.
00:10The Western country's representation justified the veto, reiterating the alleged lack of
00:15link between the draft and the immediate release of hostages.
00:18In addition to an immediate and unconditional ceasefire and the release of Palestinian detainees,
00:23the proposal called for a complete Israeli military withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, allowing
00:28for repopulation.
00:30The veto marks the fourth time Joe Biden's administration has blocked a United Nations
00:34Security Council Gaza ceasefire resolution since October 2023.
