US hosts high-level UN Security Council meeting on Gaza resolution
(MENAFN) The United States announced Wednesday that it has garnered broad regional support for a proposed UN Security Council resolution concerning Gaza. Ambassador Michael Waltz hosted a high-level session with the 10 elected Security Council members to discuss the draft resolution, according to reports.
The meeting also included representatives from Egypt, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Türkiye, and the United Arab Emirates, reflecting regional backing and a shared commitment to advancing stability and peace in Gaza, the US mission stated.
The draft resolution endorses the creation of a Board of Peace and authorizes an International Stabilization Force, both key elements of President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan for Gaza. The plan emphasizes continued humanitarian aid, the release of all hostages, and establishing the foundation for long-term security and development in the region.
"Under President Trump’s bold leadership, the United States will again deliver results at the UN – not endless talk. The parties have seized this historic opportunity to finally end decades of bloodshed and make the president’s vision of lasting peace in the Middle East a reality," the mission said.
Local reports indicate that the US circulated the draft resolution calling for the deployment of an international security force in Gaza with a minimum two-year mandate. It remains unclear when the resolution will be brought to a vote within the 15-member Council. Approval requires at least nine affirmative votes and no vetoes from any of the five permanent members: the US, Britain, France, Russia, or China.
