ISRAEL & PALESTINE: ‘14 Security Council member criticize US action on Jerusalem’, Associated Press, 9 December 2017
One by one, 14 members of the U.N. Security Council spoke out against President Donald Trump's decision to recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel at an emergency meeting on Friday, some with regret and some with anger at the 15th member, the United States. It wasn't the first time that the U.S. stood alone in defending Israel in the U.N.'s most powerful body. Over decades, it has vetoed many council resolutions it viewed as harmful to Israel.
