'US veto of Gaza truce resolution threatening global peace'

Tehran, IRNA – A senior member of the Guardian Council of the Islamic Republic of Iran has referred to the United States’ diplomatic and military support for the Israeli regime, describing the recent veto of a Gaza truce resolution by Washington as a threat to international peace and security.

Abbas-Ali Kadkhodaei, who is also the head of the Constitutional Council's Research Institute, wrote on his X (formerly known as Twitter) account that the American regime has not only refused to lessen the suffering of the Gaza residents but also indifferently watched the death of Palestinian children. Military and diplomatic support for the Israeli regime has brought about inexpressible sorrow for humanity, which is a blatant violation of the United States' commitments under the UN Charter. The recent usage of the veto mechanism by the country translates into a threat to international peace and security.

In a meeting of the UN Security Council in New York on Friday local time, a resolution proposed by the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to promote a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was vetoed by the US which is a permanent member of the UNSC. 13 out of 15 member states of the UNSC voted for it.
