US sides with Russia in historic UNGA vote on Ukraine
US Ambassador Dorothy Camille Shea votes at the UN Security Council, Feb. 24, 2025, at the United Nations headquarters.
With a new administration at the helm, the US voted yesterday against a UNGA resolution blaming Russia for the war in Ukraine. Also, hundreds of Syrians from diverse ethnic and minority communities gathered this week in Damascus for a national dialogue conference to chart the country’s political transition. And, mixed reactions in Russia over Oscar-nominated film “Anora.” Plus, “listening lounges” are music bars in Japan that aim to maximize the audio experience.
