      Absolutely not. That’s why when i heard the US abstained i had to double check why, and predictably it was because of the length of the ceasefire.

      Also, demanding the change of language from ‘permanent’ ceasefire to ‘sustained’ ceasefire was scummy and probably also part of the reason why they abstained and let the vote pass.
