[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]After passing through embarrassment and isolation at UN Security Council and facing unpleasant scenario at UN General Assembly after its Jerusalem move, US President Donald Trump has now threatened to cut aid to the countries that vote in favour of a draft UN resolution condemning the its decision.

The reaction came at time when most countries opposed Washington’s move to recognise Jerusalem as capital of Israel and relocate its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem at Security Council emergency meeting. US vetoed the draft resolution at the Security Council.

President Trump said at the White House on Wednesday that US would be “watching those votes” in the General Assembly.

He said, “They take hundreds of millions of dollars and even billions of dollars, and then they vote against us. Well, we’re watching those votes. Let them vote against us. We’ll save a lot. We don’t care.”

Earlier, Nikki Haley, US ambassador to the UN has sent threatening letters to the member states not to support the anti-US resolution.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]The UN General Assembly will hold an emergency session on Thursday to vote on the controversial US decision.

He said that American officials were “committing another mistake when they have distributed this famous letter trying to threaten countries, [and] threaten their sovereign decision to choose how to vote”.

“This is really a new definition of world order in politics and it seems that the American administration… are putting their stamp on a new political reality that many countries will reject, Maliki said

The UN session would show “how many countries will opt to vote with their conscience”.

On December 6, US President Donbald Trump recognised Jerusalem to be Israel’s capital and announced the intention to move its embassy to the city.

Trump’s move met with large scale world-wide protest demonstrations. The inhabitants in the Palestinian occupied territories, several Arab countries, Africa, Europe, America and Australia also came out on the streets against the move.

The US vetoed on Tuesday an Egyptian drafted UN Security Council resolution calling on countries not to establish diplomatic missions in Jerusalem. The US was isolated while remaining  all 14  members supported of the draft resolution.

The US Ambassador to UN Nikki Haley could not control her feelings while posting her twitter post.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]An Arab TV journalist based in New York has disclosed that Swedish ambassador to the UN has signalled that his country would vote in favour of the resolution.

“What we’re going to be seeing in the General Assembly Thursday, on that particular vote, is likely to be a sweeping condemnation now not just of attempts to alter the status of Jerusalem, but also in a way an opinion poll on President Trump’s isolationist policies,” he said.

Reacting to the US President Donald Trump’s threat of cutting aid to the countries that vote against his Jerusalem move at the General Assembly, Iranian foreign minister Mohammad Javad Zarif said that the decision was “contempt of democracy.”

Zarif also slammed Trump’s recent “insult” against Iran while announcing new National Security Strategy (NSS).[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]Several Arab and Muslim countries have requested the UN General Assembly to hold emergency special meeting on Trump’s Jerusalem move, days after US vetoed against the Security Council draft resolution.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
