United States veto blocks UN anti Israel resolution
The United States used its 13th veto in UN history to block a resolution calling for a Palestinian state and Israeli withdrawal from occupied Arab territory. The 9-1 vote saw Britain Italy and Sweden abstain while China and Libya did not participate. The veto shielded the Geneva peace framework, with Moynihan saying the move aimed to preserve ongoing negotiations and not oppose Palestinian aspirations. The session marked a tactical Arab gain by recognizing the PLO, while Israel boycotted.
