Russia Counters U.S. at U.N. With Gaza Resolution Redrawing Draft’s Terms

Washington warns competing drafts could harm Palestinians during a fragile ceasefire.

Overview

  • Moscow’s text drops demilitarization language and omits the Trump plan’s transitional Board of Peace.
  • The draft rejects any Israeli presence east of the Line Yellow and opposes territorial or demographic changes that would reduce Gaza’s area.
  • It tasks the UN Secretary‑General with evaluating options for deploying an international stabilization force.
  • The document reiterates support for a two‑state outcome and underscores the unity and territorial integrity of Gaza and the West Bank under the Palestinian Authority.
  • The U.S. mission criticizes the counter‑proposal as divisive, warns of grave consequences for Palestinians, and urges Security Council unity as negotiations continue.
