Global Pressure for Change

With 124 countries voting in favor, 14 against, and 43 abstaining, the resolution also called for reparations to be paid for damages caused by the occupation since 1967. The move is seen as a crucial international effort to bring about a two-state solution. The resolution further mandates organizing an international conference to ensure the implementation of all previous UN resolutions related to Palestine.(UN Press)
