Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has condemned the United States for vetoing a draft resolution that would have granted Palestinians full membership of the global body.
During a meeting of the Security Council yesterday evening, a draft resolution recommending to the General Assembly that "the State of Palestine be admitted to membership of the United Nations" received 12 votes in favour and two abstentions.
But the single no vote cast by the United States defeated the move.
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas said in a statement that the US move was "unfair, unethical, and unjustified."
