US EditionUS presses for approval of UN resolution on Gaza as Russia offers rival proposal
The U.S. leads a coalition including eight Muslim and Arab countries to back Trump’s Gaza plan, while Russia’s rival draft aims to delay UN Security Council approval.
- On Friday, the United States stepped up calls for U.N. consensus on its Gaza plan as Russia circulated a rival draft removing the transitional authority meant to be headed by President Donald Trump.
- After objections this week, the United States revised its draft to include clearer language on Palestinian self-determination, and Qatar, Egypt, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Pakistan, Jordan and Turkey urged swift adoption by the 15-member U.N. Security Council.
