Diplomatic sources indicate the new US-Gulf draft resolution mirrors a prior version rejected by Russia and China, risking further Security Council deadlock.
A revised draft resolution backed by the US and Gulf states is drawing opposition from Russia and China, diplomatic sources said. The proposal is seen as largely similar to an earlier version that both nations blocked, raising concerns over potential gridlock in the UN Security Council.
The earlier resolution, which faced vetoes from Moscow and Beijing, aimed to address regional security concerns but was criticized for perceived bias. Analysts suggest the latest draft may struggle to gain unanimous support, complicating diplomatic efforts.
Market reactions remain muted, but prolonged UN deadlock could heighten geopolitical uncertainty, particularly for energy and defense sectors.
