Russia, China veto Saudi resolution to blacklist Hezbollah at UN

Share:

china-russia-vetoSaudi Arabia tried to push for the adoption of a U.N. Security Council resolution to blacklist Hezbollah but Russia and China vetoed the effort , Gulf sources said.

The U.S., which considers Hezbollah a terrorist group, also “ignored” the resolution that was drafted by Saudi Arabia, they told As Safir daily on Friday.

This development comes after the Gulf Cooperation Council and the Arab League branded Hezbollah a terrorist organization.

The blacklisting was preceded by a Saudi suspension of funds worth $4 billion aimed at equipping and supporting the Lebanese army and security forces.

The Saudi decision came after Foreign Minister Jebran Bassil, a Hezbollah ally, declined to support Saudi resolutions against Iran during two meetings of Arab and Muslim foreign ministers.

    R and C do this because they see themselves being blacklisted in the future themselves and they’re trying to discourage this trend.

      Russia & China are too big to ever be black-listed ….the majority of the world would never accept it…..even amongst U.S so called allies (who mere vassal States)

        Well then, just buy less from them such as Russian oil and poisonous Chinese food products. This could affect them economically and maybe get their attention??

          The so-called 5 Eyes “International Community” amounts to 30+ countries (mainly North America & Europe)….the world consists of 200 countries. The Russians and Chinese has most of the world to trade with.

    How is it the Saudis have the nads to attack the US on 9/11 and have traitors like Bush cover it up, then send jihadist armies to Libya and Syria who behead children and then I have to listen to the Zionist media badmouth Hezbollah as they defend Shiites and Christians against Israel and ISIS? The House of Saudi is corrupt and needs to fall. It is the whore of the US and as such betrays all Muslims.

      You’ve summed up the heart of all that’s wrong in the ME today. Hope that Saud falls and takes Israel and the US with it. A million likes.
