U.S. Vetoes UN Security Council Vote Rejecting Trump’s Jerusalem Declaration

The United States vetoed a UN Security Council resolution to reaffirm Jerusalem’s status as unresolved, following U.S. President Donald Trump’s decision to recognize it as Israel’s capital.
All other of the 14 members of the Security Council voted in favor of the resolution.

This was the United States’ first time exercising their veto power in the UN Security Council since Trump took office.
