In the opinion of the Venezuelan head of state, this is an “absolute shame,” and he stated that Milei “has become, and will remain in history, the great accomplice of the genocide against the Palestinian people.”
“That will be written. Javier Milei, genocidal, will be written for the history of the history of history, and future generations, in Argentina and in the world, will remember Javier Milei (as a) genocidal coward,” said Maduro during the eleventh episode of his podcast.
Argentina was one of the nine countries that, on Friday, May 10, 2024, voted against a resolution declaring that the State of Palestine “is qualified for membership in the UN in accordance with Article 4 of the founding charter and must therefore be admitted as a member of the United Nations”; consequently, “recommends that the Security Council reconsider the matter favorably.”
Instead, an overwhelming majority of 143 nations, of the 193 members of the UN, once again called for reconsidering the integration of Palestine.
The approved resolution establishes, among other points, that Palestine may register its intervention on the list of speakers in the Assembly to speak out on topics that are not necessarily “the Palestinian question” and make statements on behalf of a group (Arab group, for example ), as well as present proposals and co-sponsor proposals of others, or give explanations of vote.
