this world's just such a bizarre scene
Discussion
What are they voting for?
clout
Fugayzi, fugazi. It's a whazy. It's a woozie. It's fairy dust. It doesn't exist. It's never landed. It is no matter. Nothing will change
aah im transmittingā¢
"PortuguĆŖs no Comando".
Desculpem š§š· ^^
what do you mean?
brazil and portugal are green, they voted for, not against protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian obligations
Guterres is Portuguese, (me too) soon we will find out that "it's bad".
Green is good ;)
"Sorry" -
"Catholic clergy in Portugal have abused almost 5,000 children since 1950, an independent commission declared on Monday, announcing its findings after hearing hundreds of victims' accounts.

damn
context:
UN General Assembly adopts resolution on 'protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian obligations' in Gaza, with 120 votes for, 14 against and 45 abstaining.
59 countries voting no to protection of civilians and upholding legal an humanitarian obligations is craazy
Countries that have to deal with both Russian ā+ā and USA ā-ā have to maintain relationships in these situationsā¦ š«
Itās NATO against Russia for most of the Europe absentees
i dont understand i think
All the Baltic States abstained
Why?
Neighbouring with an aggressor country (Russia), which you want to maintain calm relationships with, and then you also want to maintain calm relationships with the United States, because if war breaks out, they are fully dependant on NATO reacting and being there for them.
Russia was for and the US was against.
Therefore, to maintain good geopolitical relationships with each country, abstention was the stance taken in this current vote.
Itās not about the topic at hand that they are against it or donāt want to support it, itās geopolitical relationships
Canada tried to pass an amended so the resolution unequivocally condemned the terror attack by Hamas, and the Assembly rejected it. So that's all there is to say about the resolution and its sincerity. If anything, you have 120 states led by genocidal criminals, that's what's shocking.
ah that makes sense i guess
Yeah but... Nato's- An attack on one member is an attack on all , means therefore- An attack by one member state means an attack by all. Hence abstention
context:
UN General Assembly adopts resolution on 'protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian obligations' in Gaza, with 120 votes for, 14 against and 45 abstaining.
Therefore 59 countries voted no to protection of civilians and upholding legal and humanitarian obligations.
Complete context: Canada tried to include an amendment clearly condemning Hamas' murder or civilians, which initiated this new round of hostilities. The Assembly refused, forcing countries who are sincere about caring for all civilians to vote against or abstain.
