“The draft resolution is in the negotiation process and it is expected to be tabled at the UN General Assembly for approval soon,” Malaysian News Agency quoted Ibrahim as saying Monday during a session of the Malaysian Parliament.

He added that once approved, the resolution is expected to be a legal basis for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) to continue providing aid for the Palestinians in the occupied Palestinian territories and in other countries.

On October 31, 2024, Malaysia became a member of the Core Group tasked with preparing a resolution requesting an Advisory Opinion from the International Court of Justice (ICJ) regarding Israel’s obligation to allow United Nations organizations to conduct their activities.

Can’t help but notice that all this talk of “the right to self government” is always appended to paragraphs firmly talking about what the US wants and the US does.

I am not a US citizen and there are plenty of instances of the US government not supporting self-determination. I was talking about myself and I would hope most people's opinion worldwide, not some governement.

The PRC didn't invade Tawia when they the ROC's army fled there. Is that because of the USA? Taiwan has been seperate from China for almost eighty years now, that's a long time!
