Macron considered that if you work with “several regional partners, particularly from the Arab world”will it be possible to lift the veto that the US proposal received and highlighted the change in position of U.S, “which now marked the will to clearly defend a ceasefire”which “is good” for the advancement of the French draft resolution, he said.

There has been a long time ago American reticence, who has since been retired. There is alignment on a good basis in our text“, he said.

The French president noted that his country has worked in recent months with Jordan, United Arab Emirates and other nations in the region and hoped that dialogue with these regional diplomacies could lead to “to convince China It is Russia not lift a veto.”

The rejection of these two countries, which have veto rights in the United Nations Security Councilwas sufficient for the resolution proposed by U.Swhich was also rejected by Algeria.

This is the fourth time that a resolution in this regard has been vetoed by someone member state. On the three previous occasions it was U.S which vetoed it, arguing in these cases that it did not recognize Israel’s right to defend itself and that in fact it allowed the rearmament and reorganization of the Hamas.

The EU, for its part, called on Thursday for a “immediate humanitarian pause” what “leads to a sustainable ceasefire”in the first common position adopted in this regard by the Twenty-seven since the beginning of the conflict.
