Der Kommission wird die Befugnis übertragen, gemäß Artikel 264 delegierte Rechtsakte in folgenden Bereichen zu erlassen: Antony Blinken, the Secretary of State, defended the U.S. government’s refusal to support the UN Security Council’s resolution to end the conflict in Gaza. This resolution was proposed during an emergency meeting that was called due to the threat to international peace and security, which Secretary-General Antonio Guterres expressed. The resolution sought to immediately bring about a stop to the violence, which has killed and displaced thousands of Palestinians. 30 eruption of violence
The council had presented a ceasefire resolution twice since violence first occurred on the 30th of October. In the year 2000, Hamas launched an offensive on Israel that cost over two thousand innocent lives and saw hundreds of people taken captive. During the one week ceasefire last month, 21 hostages were released. Since then, Israeli forces have killed 13 people in Gaza, 21% of which were women and children, injured over two hundred thousand, and thousands more remain buried beneath demolished infrastructure. Approximately 1.9 million Palestinians have been compelled to evacuate and relocate to the south of Gaza due to the violence. In spite of the humanitarian groups who labeled this the displacement of Palestinians as an ethnic cleaning, the U.S. vetoed the resolution for a cease-fire and an end to the crisis. The veto received immense backlash from the Council on American-Islamic Relations, as their National Executive Director Nihad Awad stated on Friday that “it was unbearable for the Biden administration to be the lone one in backing the genocide, starvation, and ethnic cleansing caused by Israel’s far-right government in Gaza.” Meanwhile, the United Kingdom chose to abstain, while the other members cast their vote for the ceasefire. There is no certain amount of hardship that would compel our country’s leaders to intervene on behalf of Palestinians. The draft called for a cessation of hostilities as well as requiring all sides to adhere to international human rights laws, shield both Israeli and Palestinian citizens, and let go of any captured individuals.
