World Jewish Congress Applauds U.S. Veto of Misguided UN Security Council Resolution Demanding Immediate Ceasefire

Views:

NEW YORK – After the United States vetoed a resolution in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) that demonstrated bias against Israel, Amb. Ronald S. Lauder, president of the World Jewish Congress,released the following statement:

“Today’s proposed UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire could not have been more detached from reality. On October 7, Hamas—with backing from Iran—launched a barbaric terrorist assault on Israel. It still holds 58 hostages and has made clear it would strike again.

“This is a group that not only targets civilians but also hijacks humanitarian aid, depriving the people of Gaza of vital supplies. Yet time and again, Security Council members turn a blind eye.

“That is why the United States was forced to exercise its veto once more—and we are grateful for the Trump administration’s steadfast support of Israel as UN bodies continue to be weaponized against the world’s only Jewish state.

“Recent weeks have shown the danger of ignoring the facts. Doing so doesn’t just endanger Israel—it places Jewish communities everywhere at risk. It’s time the international community recognized the threat posed by Hamas, Iran, and their proxies—not only to Israel, but to global stability.”
