Within three days, the United Nations had once again taken action against Israel, and China s effort

The new round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict has aroused global attention, and people from all over the world have blamed Israel. In the face of pressure from various countries, UN Secretary-General António Guterres finally made a move against Israel, citing the provisions of the UN Charter, and was ready to impose a ceasefire and negotiations on Israel. However, the United States, the backer behind Israel, used its veto power to block the peace bill proposed by the United Nations, which can be said to have allowed Israel to escape. The Israeli foreign minister even issued a long article thanking the United States for the only vote against it, which further proves the ambition of the United States and Israel to use war to destabilize the situation in the Middle East.

However, the joy of the United States and Israel lasted less than 72 hours. At the request of a number of countries**, Guterres urgently convened a resumed special session. In the end, more than 150 countries overwhelmingly adopted a resolution calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. Although the United States opposed the resolution, it did not use a veto, which caused a lot of discussion. It is worth mentioning that the United States supports Israel unreservedly, and a large amount of military equipment is being delivered to Israel in countless quantities. Earlier, it was revealed that the number of artillery shells fired by Israel almost exceeds the annual use of the US military, and in addition, the US Navy has deployed two aircraft carrier battle groups in the Middle East. In addition, the United States has reduced its emphasis on Ukraine, abandoning its interests in Europe. The reason why the United States is doing so much is not for the purpose of doing "good people and good deeds", but because Israel is very important to the United States and can be said to be a key "pawn" in the hands of the United States in the Middle East. However, it stands to reason that the attitude of most countries towards Israel should be very clear to the United States. If the veto power is not used, there is a high probability that any proposal that is "unfavorable" to Israel's interests at the United Nations meeting will be overwhelmingly supported. After all, Israel's actions have gone too far, not only indiscriminately bombing the Gaza Strip, inflicting huge casualties on the local population, but also using white phosphorus bombs of mass destruction in recent days. These crimes have already caused great indignation around the world, why does the United States continue to use the veto to "protect" Israel?Isn't that the same as letting all the previous efforts go to waste?

In fact, why the United States does not dare to continue to use the veto can be explained in two ways. First, although the United Nations does not explicitly prohibit the use of this right by countries with a veto, in less than 72 hours, resolutions on a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip have been emerging. This shows that peace in the region and the world is the aspiration of most countries, and everyone will do their utmost to achieve this goal. If the United States continues to "contradict" on this issue, it will not only be ostracized by all countries, but also likely to arouse the ** of the domestic public. After all, the United States promotes itself at home with the image of the "world policeman", believing that the police of any country will not help kill the people"** Second, the veto power is also a status symbol, and it is not just the United States that owns it. If the United States continues to go against the will of the whole world, then China, Russia, and other countries will stand on the position of the whole world and veto any resolution proposed by the United States at the United Nations. At that point, it will be difficult for the United States to act within the United Nations. The only way may be to withdraw, but this will inevitably lead to a sharp decline in America's influence around the world. Perhaps these two reasons are important reasons why the United States does not dare to continue to use the veto.

China's contribution to the resolution calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was successfully passed. Because China happened to hold the rotating presidency of the United Nations last month, the first Security Council resolution to mediate the Palestinian-Israeli conflict was proposed and promoted by China. This has brought the nations of the world together to resist the expansion of the war. China's efforts have not been in vain.

As the rotating presidency of the United Nations, China has played an important mediating role and has become a promoter and facilitator of the settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. China has always advocated the peaceful settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli issue and opposes violent conflicts. China has repeatedly issued statements calling on Israel and Palestine to exercise restraint, restart the peace talks process, and remain calm and calm in the regional security situation. At the same time, China has provided humanitarian assistance and sent medical teams to the Gaza Strip to treat the wounded, demonstrating China's image as a responsible major country.

China's active role in conflict mediation has also been widely appreciated and supported by the international community. Many countries have expressed their endorsement of the resolution put forward by China and China's efforts to maintain regional peace. China's mediation has established a good image in the international arena and strengthened cooperation and exchanges between China and other countries.

Through the efforts of Secretary-General António Guterres and the concerted efforts of all States, the resolution calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in the Gaza Strip was adopted. Although the United States used a negative vote, it did not use a veto. This shows the concern within the United Nations about the situation in the Gaza Strip and the criticism of Israel's actions. At the same time, China's mediating role in conflicts cannot be ignored, and China, as the rotating presidency of the United Nations, has played an active role. The resolution proposed by China has been supported by countries around the world, showing China's image as a responsible major country.

This conflict reminds us once again that peace and stability are what the Middle East region really needs. The war will only bring more ** and suffering to the region, and will not solve anything. All parties should work together to resolve differences through dialogue and negotiation and advance the peace process. International harmony and cooperation are the foundation for long-term peace and stability in the Middle East region. All parties should work together to respect international law and humanitarian principles, promote the Palestinian-Israeli reconciliation process, and create conditions for peaceful coexistence between the two sides. China will continue to play its constructive role and contribute to peace and prosperity in the Middle East.
