The UN Security Council meets on a motion for a Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal vote at UN headquarters in New York, on March 22, 2024. Russia and China on Friday vetoed a US-led draft resolution at the Security Council on a ceasefire in Gaza, with Moscow accusing Washington of a “hypocritical spectacle” that does not pressure Israel.

Russia’s ambassador, Vasily Nebenzia, said that the United States was doing nothing to rein in Israel, mocking Washington for speaking of a ceasefire after “Gaza has been virtually wiped off the face of the Earth.”“The American product is exceedingly politicized, with the sole purpose being to play to voters and throw them a bone in the form of some kind of a mention of a ceasefire in Gaza,” he said.

The draft links a ceasefire to ongoing talks, led by Qatar with support from the United States and Egypt, to halt the war in return for Hamas releasing hostages.

SPECIAL REPORT: Rape survivors demand justice as Kano fails to domesticate important lawsIt is quite worrisome that security and intelligence related matters are now being garbed in the realm of politics and partisanship. Public discourse, particularly on matters concerning national security, should be guided by a sense of patriotism, responsibility, and a commitment to accuracy. Inflammatory pronouncements that seek to malign individuals based on conjecture can only lead to detrimental consequences. Since January when I served as a rapporteur at a five-day National Security Course on Psychological Operations and Strategic Communication, I have been fascinated by the open and secret efforts of intelligence services to ensure peace, safety and security in our fatherland.
