disapproval of President Joe Biden's handling of the crisis. This month, Chuck Schumer, US Senate majority leader, called for new elections in Israel, accusing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of being “too willing to tolerate the civilian toll in Gaza.”
The Biden administration’s belated shift after nearly six months of Israel’s military actions in Gaza shows growing unwillingness to unconditionally support Tel Aviv.
After blocking three draft resolutions calling for an immediate ceasefire, the US recently introduced a
resolution that didn't pass at the UN Security Council due to strong opposition from Russia and China. The document contained certain provisions that potentially allowed Israel to continue its military operations.
On March, 22, Russia's UN Ambassador, Vassily Nebenzia, accused Washington of trying to "sell a product" to the Security Council by including the term "imperative," while the draft was "deliberately misleading the international community."
"If this resolution had been adopted, it would have definitively closed the discussion on the need for a ceasefire in Gaza, it would have untied Israel's hands and sentenced Gaza and its entire population to destruction or expulsion," Nebenzia told the council.
