The Washington Post includes the US in a list with "Moscow-friendly" countries. Wow!

"The United States voted with Russia, North Korea, Belarus and 14 other Moscow-friendly countries Monday on a resolution condemning Russian aggression in Ukraine and calling for its occupied territory to be returned that passed overwhelmingly in the U.N. General Assembly on Monday."

Via the #KyivIndependent @ 11:50am ET on Feb 20, 2025

US→refusing to co-sponsor a #UN resolution marking the third anniversary of #Russia's full-scale invasion, which reaffirms Ukraine's territorial integrity & condemns #Moscow's aggression, #Reuters reported, citing sources familiar w/ matter.

The upcoming UN vote, considered key indicator of global support for #Ukraine, can proceed w/o U.S. backing but may struggle to gain widespread support in the #GeneralAssembly.

#Palestine (Israel) / Genocider Herzog to head Jewish Federations’ ‘General Assembly’

This guy. The guy the International Court of Justice (#ICJ) which found South Africa’s claims against #Israel regarding potential genocide plausible. In its resolution, the court highlighted statements from Israeli President Herzog, including remarks suggesting collective responsibility among Palestinians, which were interpreted as raising concerns about genocidal intent.

During a visit to reserve battalions, Herzog was photographed (by Haim Tzach / GPO) autographing an artillery shell intended for use in #Gaza, where he wrote the phrase “I rely on you” on the shell.

The General Assembly is organized by the Jewish Federations, taking place in Washington, DC from November 10-12.

The announcement, from July, says:

[…] Herzog has worked tirelessly since October 7th to foster hope and resiliencies among Israelis and continues to use his voice to promote unity and solidarity for global Jewish communities facing increased antisemitism.

Who here knows about or reports on UN General Assembly diplomacy?
Just asking because that ICJ advisory opinion goes back to the General Assembly for its next session starting 10 September. Draft resolutions will get worked up. Personally, I'd like to add a bit of pushing my government (UK) towards effective wording on boycotts and sanctions.
Is there going to be time and opportunity for public pressure?

We adopted the slogan ‘Nothing for us without us!’ from the disabled movement in the United Kingdom. We adopted the phrase ‘grassroots urban planning’ from comrades in the urban movement in Brazil. This is why Ashraf Cassiem, the leader of the militant Western Cape Anti-Eviction Campaign developed the slogan ‘We are poor not stupid!’.
