Nuove risoluzioni, nessun riconoscimento

Decine di nuove risoluzioni ONU (approfondimenti qui):

Draft I, on assistance to Palestine refugees, would have the Assembly call upon all donors to continue to make the most generous efforts possible to meet the anticipated needs of UNRWA, including with regard to increased expenditures arising from the serious socio-economic and humanitarian situation and instability in the region, particularly in the Occupied Palestinian Territory, and those mentioned in recent emergency appeals.
The draft was approved by a recorded vote of 160 in favour to 1 against (Israel), with 9 abstentions (Canada, Ecuador, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Palau, United States, Vanuatu, Haiti).
Draft II, on persons displaced as a result of the June 1967 and subsequent hostilities, the Assembly would stress the necessity for an accelerated return of displaced persons, and call for compliance with the mechanism agreed upon by the parties in article XII of the Declaration of Principles on Interim Self-Government Arrangements of 13 September 1993 on the return of displaced persons.  It would also strongly appeal to all Governments, organizations and individuals to contribute generously to the Agency and to the other intergovernmental and non-governmental organizations concerned.
The text was approved by a recorded vote of 162 in favour to 7 against (Israel, Canada, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Palau, United States), with 4 abstentions (Cameroon, Haiti, Panama, Vanuatu).
Draft III, on operations of UNRWA, the Assembly would urge the Government of Israel to expeditiously reimburse the Agency for all transit charges incurred and other financial losses sustained as a result of delays and restrictions on movement and access, and to cease obstructing the movement and access of the staff, vehicles and supplies of the Agency and to cease the levying of taxes, extra fees and charges, which affect the Agency’s operations detrimentally.
By further provisions, it would reiterate its call on Israel to fully lift the restrictions impeding the import of necessary construction materials and supplies for the reconstruction and repair of thousands of damaged or destroyed refugee shelters.
The text was approved by a recorded vote of 163 in favour to 7 against (Israel, Canada, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Palau, United States), with 2 abstentions (Cameroon, Vanuatu).
Draft IV, on Palestine refugees’ properties and their revenues, would have the Assembly urge the Palestinian and Israeli sides to deal with that important issue within the framework of the final status negotiations of the Middle East peace process.
The text was approved by a recorded vote of 163 in favour to 7 against (Israel, Canada, Federated States of Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Nauru, Palau, United States), with 3 abstentions (Cameroon, Haiti, Vanuatu).

Sempre la solita storia, gli Stati contrari sono coloro che decidono definitivamente l’azione da seguire.

  1. Dagli approfondimenti mi sembra di aver capito che tutti i provvedimenti presi a favore della Palestina sono stati approvati per il maggior numero di votanti a favore (ben 163). Non capisco perché dice che decidono loro considerando che sono in netta minoranza?

  2. Dal 1948 l'ONU emana, in certi periodi in quantità, in altri con minore rilevanza, risoluzioni su risoluzioni, tutte a favore della Palestina, tutti, o quasi, con il voto contratio di Israele e USA, la minoranza, come dice lei. Dal 1948 ad oggi chi ha deciso delle sorti della Palestina e dei palestinesi? Le risoluzioni ONU o la minoranza?
    Non c'è da rallegrarsi dei numeri o del fatto che molti sono a favore della causa palestinese, bisogna essere oggettivi su ciò che è successo e sta succedendo.
