without giving a coherent explanation for the second veto
They said that they vetoed because “Brazil didn’t say that Israel has a right of self-defense”.
Gustavo Petro and Lula da Silva had been talking to Biden since they were elected about lifting the sanctions. I think Spain was supporting it too.
The only thing left to do is to reinstate Venezuela as a member of Mercusur.
This whole situation is the fault of the US and France. This is their 4th invasion of Haiti, they never solve anything, they just do this shit to further oppress the Haitian people and steal more of Haiti’s resources.
The only time anything good came out of these interventions was the restoration of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, who seemed to be the only recent head of state who actually cared about Haiti. And even then, the United States removed him from power in 2004.
Nobody is going to arrest the leader of a nation with Nuclear Weapons.
why they don’t do the same for Bush, Cheney, Blair, etc.
Iirc the USA said the didn’t care about Hague and that they would invade netherlands if they ever tried to arrest a US politician or general.
The United States is not a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The Act authorizes the President of the United States to use “all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court”. This authorization led to the act being colloquially nicknamed “The Hague Invasion Act”, as the act allows the President to order U.S. military action, such as an invasion of The Hague, where the ICC is located, to protect American officials and military personnel from prosecution or rescue them from custody.
There are a lot of people in South Korea that hates the US and Japan way more than the DPRK or China. There are still a strong anti-US sentiment in Okinawa and near US bases in Japan, these led to the 1960 and 1970 Anpo protests in Japan.
