Grownnews: Tel Avin - Israel could not
mask his anger at its closest ally, the United States (US). Because the United
States abstained in the voting in the Security Council (UNSC) United Nations to
decide the fate of settlement construction in Jerusalem and the West Bank. The US attitude
paved the way for 14 other UN Security Council members unanimously passed the
resolution. Israel asked to immediately and completely halt settlement
construction in the Palestinian territories they occupied.
In its resolution,
the Security Council stressed that the construction of Israeli measures
contrary to international law. The voting itself was held on charges of four
countries, namely Venezuela, Senegal, New Zealand, and Malaysia. Earlier, Egypt has
also joined with the four countries. But lately Israel lobby and Donald Trump
made the Pyramid State retract his proposal.
Israel angry
abysmal response to the resolution. There was a long wait, the country's Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu immediately took a number of steps as a form of
protest.
Quoted from a
variety of sources, following the Israeli reaction on UN Security Council
resolutions related to the construction of illegal Jewish settlements, check it out:
1. Attractive
Ambassador
PM Netanyahu is
reported to have summoned the Israeli ambassadors in New Zealand and Senegal to
consult the relevant UN Security Council resolutions. Both countries including
the party that initiated the birth of the decision.
Meanwhile,
Netanyahu's spokesman, David Keys, explained that it had requested that the
planned visit Senegal's foreign minister to Israel in three weeks' time to be
canceled. It turned out that
anger Israel also impact on the affairs of assistance. PM Netanyahu is reported
to have ordered that all aid to Senegal canceled.
2. Stop Funding To UN
Israel did not
remain silent after the "beaten" UN Security Council resolution which
ordered a halt to settlement construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
PM Netanyahu is said to have ordered that the country attract funding to the
five United Nations agencies.
Speaking through a
speech that aired on television, the Israeli Prime Minister said that his
government is currently holding nearly $ 8 million in funding for a number of
UN agencies. But he was reluctant to mention names of these institutions. Netanyahu also said
that there are steps that will be done. Again he was not willing to explain it.
3. Calling The US
Ambassador
Perhaps the most
made Israel angry is the attitude of the US which abstained until the UN
Security Council passes resolution. PM Netanyahu is reported to have summoned
the US ambassador to Israel, Daniel Shapiro to discuss the policy of Uncle Sam. There has been no
explanation of exactly when the two meetings held. Neither the State Department
nor the Israeli prime minister's office did not give any confirmation.
Besides calling the
US ambassador, Israel also summoned 14 foreign representatives - some call it
the other 10. But some reports say diplomats did not meet the call. Netanyahu himself
has been confirmed, it would not comply with UN Security Council resolutions.
"Israel
rejects the UN resolution shameful anti-Israel, we will not abide by the
results," said Israeli Prime Minister was quoted as saying by the BBC. On other occasions
he said he had spoken with "friends" of Israel in the US either from
Republicans or Democrats. Netanyahu admitted and can not wait for the new US
administration which will be captained by Trump.
