    And now it’s Russia and China vetoing the US resolution calling for a ceasefire, hence the article.

      I was explaining how they’re the same. You know, for someone who likes explaining the obvious, you really did miss out on this obvious point being made, twice.

        So because the US vetoed a measure earlier, them proposing a ceasefire now is grounds for Russia/China to veto?

        You sound like someone who thinks “no u” is a strong argument.

          They vetoing it because the US proposed a conditional ceasefire while Russia and China want an immediate unconditional ceasefire.

          Did you reply to the wrong post? I was explaining how the US could be seen as the same as China and Russia on this issue because they’re taking turns vetoing each other’s resolutions. The original post was talking about Biden. I didn’t say anything about anyone having grounds to veto. It’d help to follow along the conversation before jumping into the middle of it.
