Instead, the association approved Ukrainian decision supported by Europe calling for Russia to withdraw immediately from Ukraine.
It represents the Trump administration’s setback in the 193 -member global body, whose decisions are not legally binding but are a measure of global opinion. But it also shows some decreasing support for Ukraine, whose decision has passed 93-18, with 65 from refraining from abstinence. This is less than previous voices, which have seen more than 140 countries condemning the aggression of Russia.
The United States tried to pressure the Ukrainians to withdraw their decision in favor of its proposal, according to an American official and a European diplomat that spoke on the condition of anonymity because the talks were private. They refused, then the association added a language to the US proposal.
