EDITOR’S NOTE (Nick Stamatakis).  We are living in historic times!  For the first time in recent memory the United States voted against condmning Russia in the United Nations on who started the war in Ukraine!! I am pinching myself to see if I am dreaming!! My friends, thios proves that Trump and Putin are synchronizing their actions against the common enemy of humanity – THE GLOBALIST BANKSTERS!!
 Again, I note here that Trump (and Vance and Musk and others) are at a very high risk of being assassinated.  They are acting very swiftly so far, and they have disoriented their enemies, who are, in essence, the enemies of humanity. But they need to be extra careful every step of the way… We all pray for them!!

US joins Russia to vote against UN resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine

Ambassador Dorothy Camille Shea, Chargé d’Affaires ad interim of the United States, speaks during a United Nations General Assembly meeting for a special session at the United Nations headquarters on February 24, in New York City. The General Assembly continued it's eleventh emergency special session as they prepare to vote on an annual resolution condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
CNN — 

The United States joined Russia to vote against a UN General Assembly resolution condemning Russia’s war against Ukraine Monday in a stunning shift from years of US policy.

The vote against the Ukrainian and European-backed resolution saw the US at odds with its longtime European allies and instead aligned with the aggressor in the war on the three-year anniversary of Moscow’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine.

It came as the Trump administration has pursued discussions with Moscow about ending the war as the President Donald Trump has ratcheted up his rhetoric towards Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

The resolution was adopted by the General Assembly with 93 votes in favor. It notes “with concern the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by the Russian Federation has persisted for three years and continues to have devastating and long-lasting consequences not only for Ukraine, but also for other regions and global stability” and “calls for a de-escalation, an early cessation of hostilities and a peaceful resolution of the war against Ukraine.”

The US had introduced a rival General Assembly resolution, which did not call Russia the aggressor or acknowledge Ukraine’s territorial integrity.

It “implores a swift end to the conflict and further urges a lasting peace between Ukraine and Russia.” It mourns “the tragic loss of life throughout the Russia-Ukraine conflict” and reiterates “the principal purpose of the United Nations, as expressed in the United Nations Charter, is to maintain international peace and security and to peacefully settle disputes.”

The US is expected to introduce the same draft resolution at the UN Security Council later on Monday.

Prior to the vote in the General Assembly, Ambassador Dorothy Shea, the charge d’affaires at the US Mission to the UN, had urged “all Member States, including Ukraine and Russia” to back the resolution.

“A simple, historic statement from the General Assembly that looks forward, not backwards. A resolution focused on one, simple idea: Ending the war. A path to peace is possible,” she said.

“Mr. President, that is why the United States opposed putting forward another resolution. And that is why we cannot support Ukraine’s resolution, and we urge its withdrawal in favor of a strong statement committing us to end the war and work towards a lasting peace,” Shea said.

The US ended up abstaining on the vote for its own resolution at the General Assembly after several amendments were passed ahead of the vote to strengthen the language against Russia and reaffirm Ukraine’s territorial integrity.

  1. This is the time to end the war. Over the rest of our lifetimes there will be plenty of time to debate who was at fault.

    As I have posted previously, I suggest a peace deal based roughly along the current line of military control.

  2. The U.S. is not actually making any friends here. Frenemies, perhaps, but not friends. Russia will only be looking to stab the U.S. in the back when the moment is right, and that “stab” will likely be to take out the dominance of the U.S. stock market.

    Everyone knows the U.S. stock market is Trump’s symbol of power, and therefore it is also Trump’s Achilles Heel.
