This non-binding resolution targets efforts to seek accountability via the United Nations for Israel’s ongoing violations of international law. It calls for the rejection of UN Security Council Resolution 2334 for contributing to BDS efforts and for trying to “extract concessions from Israel.” UN Security Council Resolution 2334 reaffirmed that Israel’s illegal settlements constitute a flagrant violation of international law. The US broke from its practice of blocking UN accountability measures focused on Israel and abstained rather than vetoing the resolution, causing consternation among pro-Israel groups. Related legislation: SJM 3.
