UNGA Votes 143-9 to Grant Palestine New Rights Amid US Opposition
May 10, 2024, 03:53 PM
The United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) has overwhelmingly voted to grant new rights and privileges to Palestine, paving the way for its potential full membership as the 194th member of the United Nations. The resolution, which passed with 143 votes in favor, 9 against, and 25 abstentions, calls on the Security Council to favorably reconsider Palestine's membership bid. Despite retaining its observer status, this significant move has been met with opposition from the United States, which plans to veto, and Israel, with the latter's ambassador, Gilad Erdan, symbolically shredding the UN Charter during the assembly in protest. France has expressed support for Palestine's full membership.
