Russia's permanent representative to the UN asked the United States why they are against a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip

The current US position on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is that Washington has actually supported Israel's carpet bombing and shelling of the Gaza Strip. Naturally, this approach of the American administration could not help but provoke a reaction from other states.


The Permanent Representative of the Russian Federation to the UN and the UN Security Council, Vasily Nebenzya, addressed the United States with an understandable and logical question about Washington’s position.

I want to ask the US representative a question - explain why you are against the ceasefire? Does this mean that the United States, being a permanent member of the Security Council, supports the doctrine of “total retaliation” in Gaza?

- asks the Russian permanent representative to the UN.

Vasily Nebenzya asks the American administration why the “sympathy” for civilians, which the United States talked about after the start of a special military operation of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine, has disappeared. He directly asked the American representative whether the United States really only thinks about the lives of the population of the European continent, while the lives of Palestinians do not matter to Washington?

The Russian diplomat specifically emphasized that the same questions should be asked to representatives of other Western countries present at the UN Security Council. All of them abstained during the voting on draft resolutions proposing to call on the parties, including Israel, to a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. We are talking about obvious “double standards”, which the West is no longer able to hide.

Let us note that the Palestinian-Israeli conflict contributes to the further deterioration of the already difficult relations between the West and the countries of the Global South, and if earlier Washington and its European satellites could still hope for a change in the position of Asian and African countries on the Ukrainian conflict, then after the events in Gaza and the Western reactions to them are becoming less and less likely.

    Am I the only one who thinks that asking the hegemon who destroyed two cities with nuclear bombs and wiped out Mosul from the face of the earth is not a very good thing to ask such questions??!

            For all. If earlier their double standards and hypocrisy were not particularly visible due to the time intervals of events, then in the current realities this has already become fully visible. And now we need to remind them of this - constantly. Even if there is little immediate benefit from this, the seed of doubt in the policies of the United States and its supporters must be sown and nurtured. Let them think about what such a policy can lead to, when one country tries to impose its will on others, without regard for anyone’s interests, but only its own.

      Yes, it may be a good thing, but it is a priori meaningless because... It is impossible to get an honest answer from mattresses. Alas.
      The USA is an empire of lies and a kingdom of crooked mirrors rolled into one, where everything is based on meanness and hypocrisy.

        And as always, the main question... who will pay for all this???
        Military spending, in itself, is a serious burden on the budget of any country, and “free assistance” to the side is generally a bottomless black hole!!!
        It’s clear that their own people will get a lot out of it, but for the budget it’s money gone down the drain feel
        Cunning guys, they just print colored candy wrappers, but this is not useful for any economy and in the end it will “break”, even a big, strong one.... nothing happens for nothing.
        Oh yes, the average person... this will definitely affect him, this is what always happens. And the longer problems accumulate, the more destructive the consequences.

          It was planned that it would be Russia. (It’s not for nothing that the money frozen there lies and waits for victory over the Russian Federation in order to officially become an indemnity).
          But everything went wrong. And lenders are already starting to ask questions. And look towards Zelensky with the question “where is our money and when are you going to return it to us?”

    They should not ask questions, but show how the American presence on foreign territory is being destroyed.

    To which, obviously, the representative of the United States chuckled to himself and turned a deaf ear to the question. You won’t get through the Anglo-Saxons and their sixes with similar questions. The position of the “hegemon” must be indisputable and not subject to discussion.

    It’s not for nothing that Comrade Nenbenzya eats his bread in the UN Security Council - the hegemon found himself in the minority on the issue of the Palestinians in the world community, even the US vassal Israel had to turn into bloody clowns, wearing yellow Stars of David at the UN, we are victims of the Holocaust. We for what? Yes for that!
    Next in line is Ukraine.

      By this they only devalue the memory of the victims of the Holocaust, and indeed the attitude towards those events. Coupled with Israel's actions, today's global hostility will develop into hatred with subsequent pogroms against Jews around the world. Even in the countries of the “entire world community,” as they call themselves. Which today looks like this:

    The current US position on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict is that Washington has actually supported Israel's carpet bombing and shelling of the Gaza Strip.
    It is enough to understand and know who in the United States makes up the leadership in politics and business, the people of which nation. It seems that it has been decided to add new territories to Israel

    General phrases are wrong; they only sound nice to the public. If a country defends itself with guns, it is not profitable for it, the country suffers losses, but it saves lives and protects the economy. In this case, your phrase is a populist lie! Think before you write.

    Well, Nebenzya knows exactly what double standards are, according to international law, Russia also occupies foreign lands, refuses a ceasefire and negotiations, and no, ultimatums, “either our way or not at all” are not negotiations. The task of denazification and demilitarization is essentially exactly the same as what Israel is doing with Hamas. So double standards are everywhere when it comes to self-interest.

      . Russia also occupies foreign lands, refuses ceasefire and negotiations

      Firstly, Ukraine refuses negotiations. Secondly, there were the Minsk agreements which Ukraine did not fulfill. Thirdly, our plans did not provide for the annexation of the regions, but Ukraine forced us to do this, and precisely for the purpose of preserving the lives of the people. There are many more differences. But I have no time now

      So Nebenzya talks about this. Why, in the case of Palestine, do they call the actions of the United States and Israel “self-defense,” but they call the actions of Russia “occupation”? Here you need to either take off the cross or put on panties. As soon as they were touched, they immediately changed their shoes in a jump.

      In general, this seems to be true, only Russia does not occupy foreign lands.

        So I’m not condemning anyone, I’m just stating that double standards are everywhere, since often the rules go against the interests of one side or another. In fact, the UN is unable to prevent more than one serious conflict if major players are involved on different sides, hence this whole circus of Security Council meetings.

    As journalist Michael Bohm said on a Russian television broadcast several years ago, America does it because it can do it. And he will adapt any justification to any of his actions, no matter how hypocritical it may seem. No one can tell them anything and no one can say a word against them.
    The strong are always right, the word always yields to the fist.

    because there are no civilians there, in Dagestan the same civilians were ready to tear apart innocent people, simply because they are Jews, I note that the Tsakhal does not bomb Dagestan, Palestinian civilians are the ones who mocked the captured hostages, that’s what you’re talking about are you talking about them? Hamas will be destroyed, Israel, unlike representatives of the “peaceful religion,” does not specifically kill ordinary people, but those who die consider them the same victims as the victims of the bombing of Dresden in 45, they themselves wanted it that way, as Golda Meer once said “Peace in Palestine” will come when they begin to love their children more than hate ours."

      Are you a civilian? Would you mock prisoners? So the PEACEFUL Palestinians did not mock anyone. Israel is not conducting a special operation, it is not waging a war. It is a revenge. Bloody, merciless revenge. Also blind

        There is no international law or rule requiring a declaration of war. War is a process, not an event; it is not declared, but waged. This particular war began on May 15, 1947 and is still not over, although from time to time the parties agree to a truce.

    The foreign policy of the Russian Foreign Ministry is designed to actually strengthen the position of the country and its allies
    all over the world, and at the UN there was such a brilliant opportunity
    give another slap
    to an aging idiot, which the diplomat Nebenzya wisely took advantage of.
