UN Security Council Supports Trump’s Gaza Plan
The United Nations Security Council has officially endorsed Donald Trump’s new Gaza plan in a significant move for Middle Eastern diplomacy. The resolution, which references the creation of an independent Palestine, passed with an overwhelming 13-0 vote. China and Russia, often vocal in such matters, chose to abstain rather than oppose the proposal.
What’s in the Plan?
Trump’s plan has drawn attention for its clear acknowledgment of Palestinian statehood—a point that has often been the sticking point in peace negotiations. The international community, long divided on the issue, seems to have found common ground for now. The abstention by China and Russia is a diplomatic move in itself, as neither country wanted to openly oppose a resolution with such global significance.
In a world where peace plans often gather dust, this vote is a rare glimmer of hope—or as rare as finding a unicorn in politics. Will this groundbreaking move finally bring lasting peace to Gaza? Only time (and probably a few more summits) will tell.
