Beijing: China says that it is not an easy task to bring unity among the countries of the world on the Gaza issue. China signaled this by displaying a broken toy symbolically in front of UN members. China holds the presidency of the UN Security Council this month.
Shan Jun, China’s Permanent Representative to the UN, said that if a toy is completely broken, only one piece can do nothing. The Security Council, which has only the power to implement decisions, cannot effectively impose sanctions or take military action against Israel, which has been involved in violence in Gaza.
At the same time, members have not even been able to support a resolution to implement a temporary ceasefire in Gaza. None of the four motions presented on this issue could be passed. Two were vetoed. One was vetoed by the US and the other by China and Russia. The other two were rejected because they did not receive the necessary majority to pass. China and Russia vetoed the resolution because it did not call for a ceasefire. Meanwhile, the US vetoed the resolution, citing Israel’s right to self-defense.
