Kuwait regrets veto at UNSC on Gaza ceasefire vote


KUWAIT: Kuwait regretted Wednesday the renewed use of the veto at the UN Security Council (UNSC) on a draft resolution submitted by Algeria on behalf of the Arab group, calling for Gaza ceasefire and cessation of the brutal aggression launched by occupation forces against the disarmed Palestinian people for over four months.

In a statement issued today, the Kuwaiti Ministry of Foreign Affairs reiterated the position of the State of Kuwait calling for an immediate and complete ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, warning of the consequences of the ongoing deteriorating humanitarian situation in the Strip and the incessent bloodshed of Palestinian civilians.

The State of Kuwait affirmed that the failure of the Security Council to adopt the draft resolution unfortunately embodies the size of the challenges facing the international will, which requires rapid action to confront and address them to ensure that the Security Council is able to carry out its political duties in maintaining peace and security.
