American veto to the UN resolution against the construction of a colony in Jerusalem by Israel
The draft resolution proposed by the UN Security Commission against Israel’s attempts to build a colony in East Jerusalem was vetoed. During the Six-Day War of 1967, Israel conquered the eastern part of the city and annexed it in 1980, without international recognition. The UN considers it an occupied territory.
