December 20, 2023, atGaza StripThe southern city of Rafah, where people face a huge catastrophe after an air strike by the Israeli army. The basic living conditions of the population are rapidly deteriorating, and the urgent need for humanitarian assistance is on the forefront. After many delays, the Council finally adopted the case on 22 DecemberGaza Stripnew resolution. The resolution adopted was a long time in the making, full of political compromises on all sides, culminating in a resolution that called for "the creation of conditions for a sustainable cessation of hostilities". In the process, the United States and Russia chose to abstain instead ofOne vote no, which is also a political compromise. In addition to the drafting adjustments, the resolution was postponed because of the call in the draftUnited NationsEstablish a dedicated monitoring mechanism to expedite the flow of aidGazaAnd it was blocked by the United States. After the resolution was passed,Secretary-General of the United NationsGuterresThe Israeli authorities are urged to lift it immediatelyGazaBusinessrestrictions on activities to allow the inflow of humanitarian aidGaza。However, the Israeli side claims that for security reasons, they will continue to inspect the shipmentGaza Stripof aid. It can be said that Israel has created a huge obstacle to humanitarian assistance in the past, and now they dare to say that the aid is insufficient, which is unprecedented. It's shocking that they prevent others from helping others when they create a disaster, and then blame them for not being enough and slow.
In the process of adopting the resolution, the brutal behavior of the United States was shocking. Originally, the draft proposed by the UAE called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, but in order to avoid the United StatesOne vote no, the wording of the draft was revised several times. Because of Israel's concerns about the new monitoring mechanism, the United States has blocked the draft call for a monitoring mechanism. Such an act is not only an obstacle to humanitarian assistance, but also a violation of the resolution as a whole. In fact, the United States has always been a supporter of Israel, and they not only raised their views during the adoption of the resolution, but also chose to abstain from voting. This time the resolution was adopted for the strengthening of humanitarian assistance, maintenanceGaza StripThe rights of the people are extremely important, but the United States is unacceptable to resist these measures because of its partiality with Israel.
Under pressure from Israel, the process of adopting the resolution was extremely difficult. Israel**HerzogThe day before the adoption of the resolution, there was still pressure, demandingUnited NationsTo enterGazais responsible for the aid supplies. This accusation is ridiculous, isn't it?Gaza StripThe catastrophe isUnited NationsCaused?The logic of Israel's arbitrary killings and all sorts of excuses to shirk responsibility is truly unprecedentedly absurd. Not only have they created obstacles to the entry of humanitarian aid, but they have also tried to shift the blameUnited NationsSuch behavior is intolerable. Israel is inGazaThe disposition of the enormous obstacles to the distribution of humanitarian aid during the military operations is truly deplorable.
After the adoption of the resolution,Secretary-General of the United NationsGuterresStatements say that Israel is inGaza Striphas created enormous obstacles to the distribution of humanitarian assistance. He strongly called on the Israeli authorities to immediately lift the targetGazaBusinessrestrictions on activities to create a favorable environment for humanitarian assistance. His accusations against Israel are clear and forceful, showingUnited NationsForGaza StripAttention and vigilance. However, the Israeli side is not impressed. On social media, the Israeli Foreign Minister published a post claiming that Israel would continue to inspect shipmentsGazasaid it was for safety reasons. This behavior is not only rightUnited NationsThe ignorance of the appeal is even more correctGazaIgnoring the basic rights and interests of the people. It is truly outrageous that they justify their actions on so-called security grounds, despite the urgent need for humanitarian assistance.
In addition, Israel is accusingUnited NationsRightGazaRefugeesThe rescue efforts were slow and did not workRefugeesBuild a tent. Such accusations are incredible. During Israel's military operations, many innocent people were forcibly displaced, they lost their homes and their basic living conditions. Now, Israel is rightUnited Nationsof the rescue efforts expressed displeasure, accusing them of slow progress. The logic is incomprehensible. In the face of the catastrophe, Israel createdRefugees, but the blame is shiftedUnited NationsSuch behavior is truly outrageous. Their criticism of the relief effort in a highly ambiguous manner reveals their resistance to humanitarian assistance, which is unconscionable.
The actions of Israel and the United States are appalling in the course of the difficult birth of this Security Council resolution. Israel is inGaza StripThe military operations have created such huge obstacles to the distribution of humanitarian aid that they have even ignoredUnited Nationsto continue to inspect aid supplies. They pass the blame onUnited NationsIt is really sad to blame the slow progress of the rescue work. At the same time, the United States has shown a bias in favor of Israel during the adoption of the resolution, thwarting the draft call for a monitoring mechanism. Their choice to abstain from voting, and their resistance to the resolution adopted this time is unacceptable.
In the face of such a situation, we should pay close attentionGaza StripThe issue of humanitarian assistance. We should supportSecretary-General of the United NationsGuterresThe accusations and appeals against Israel prompted the Israeli authorities to lift them immediatelyBusinessrestrictions on activities to create a favorable environment for humanitarian assistance. We cannot sit idly by while the catastrophe is created, and we cannot tolerate the obstruction of humanitarian assistance. We need to reveal the hypocrisy and arrogance of Israel and the United States through the power of **Gaza StripHumanitarian aid calls for justice and fairness. Only in this way can we letGaza Stripof the victims returned to normal life and rebuilt their homes.
