The annual UN resolution disapproving of the Cuba embargo came up. And the entire world, or nearly all of it, took a firm stand in favor of mandatory trade with a brutal Communist tyranny.
The UN General Assembly voted 187 – 2 in favor of its pro-Communist resolution urging the “necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba,”
The 2 were America and Israel. (Moldova, for some reason, abstained.)
Every other country, our allies in Europe, even seemingly Ukraine, voted against America.
It’s a truly disgraceful showing.
Making it likely even more disgraceful is that the Marshall Islands and Micronesia voted against America and since they tend to vote in lockstep with us, that suggests that the White House was covertly in favor of the UN resolution, but didn’t want to make a show of voting for it or even abstaining, as was the case with Obama, during an election year.

“The UN General Assembly voted 187 – 2 in favor of its pro-Communist resolution urging the “necessity of ending the economic, commercial and financial embargo imposed by the United States of America against Cuba.” There are two reasons that this travesty continues. 1) There no longer is a Jean Kirkpatrick UN Ambassador to defend US principles. 2) Democrat administrations invite this kind of open disrespect of the United States because these nations know that there is no fight or patriotism in Democrats. When is the last time that you’ve heard a Democrat politician say that he loves America?

Ukraine voted against this? Screw the ambassador who cast his vote.

Probably all were paid in hard cold cash…

He’s probably a sweaty Kulak with B.O. and vodka breath so I’ll take a pass on that.

Yea Mick, the “By any means necessary,” people are famous for their scruples and accountability, lol Tell us another one, you’re on a roll.

Like a dog rolling excitedly in the grass, to pick up some “Doggie Perfume” 🙂

Or sniffing the piss on every tree and pole it passes.

Conspiracy theory? Greenfield didn’t mention Trump at all, and it’s not a conspiracy or smear without Trump in the sentence.
And who voted in the White House? Alzheimer Joe doesn’t even know that the house is white or that he lives in it on the rare days he isn’t basking on a Delaware beach like a rotting white whale carcass. America’s UN “representative” only shows up for parties and free booze.
The Marshall Islands and the Federated States of Micronesia sponge off America more than any tropical reef sponge does, so yes, it’s odd when they don’t vote in lockstep with America. They know who pays for their coconut heads and fish breath. Godzilla should go back there and finish the job..
CowboyUp says
Hard to top the dems for slimy duplicity, especially in an election year. Argentine President Javier Milei Fired Argentina’s Foreign Minister for voting in favor.

if we trade with russia and china why not cuba — or cuber as President JFK pronounced? the best way to defeat commienizm is with capitalism – not saying the that banana republic of cuber won’t still keep its people down – anyway – f’k the UN – USA should no longer foot the bill for the UN – what the UN has done to Israel and the antisemitism in the UN is proof that we are dead heading to the antichrist
Kit_Jefferson says
The mice can vote to “bell the cat” all they want to. Putting that bell around the cat’s neck is another matter.
Algorithmic Analyst says
The Moldova vote probably has something to do with Russia currently attempting to take over.
Floyd Looney says
The UN has no say in US economic-international policies
Spurwing Plover says
More reasons we need to totally pull out of the Useless Nations and moved the whole rotten lot to Beijing or Moscow and without America to finance these Crinimals
Jon Bechtel says
It is past time the UN be forced off the shores of the USA and to a communist country where its policies are more aligned. We also need to stop subsidizing their evil agenda and their headquarters in NYC
SteveFInSC says
There is in fact only one reason for the US to remain in the UN and that is our veto vote on the security council. We can stop the UN from being weaponized against us and our increasingly useless allies.
Jeff Bargholz says
“(Moldova, for some reason, abstained.)”
The only two people who live there were probably absent from the UN that day. They were probably nibbling on some cabbage rolls or something.
