        It’s mostly because they depend on US Aid money or because they didn’t pay the UN fees to vote.

      Ukraine usually doesn’t vote with the US in some issues like Palestine (mostly because Z Man Zelensky probably dislikes that Biden begun sending more guns to Israel than to Ukraine). And they didn’t recognize Juan Guaido 2.0. Now Argentina on the other hand seem to be replacing Bolsonaro’s Brazil, and always voting with the US in everything.

      Ukraine’s ambassador to the UN, Volodymyr Yelchenko, likened Israel’s settlement of the West Bank to the Russian occupation of Crimea. In November 2022, Ukraine supported a UN resolution that asked the International Court of Justice to investigate Israel’s “prolonged occupation, settlement and annexation of Palestinian territory”. In response, Israel summoned and admonished the Ukrainian ambassador. Shortly after, in “an apparent act of retaliation”, Israel did not vote for a UN resolution calling on Russia to pay reparations for invading Ukraine.

      On 2 June 2024, Zelensky reiterated Ukraine’s support for a two-state solution. He remarked that, while Ukraine has supported Israel’s right for self-defence against Hamas during the attacks in October 2023, during the humanitarian crisis Ukraine said that is ready to help Gaza humanitarianly and it “will do everything so that Israel stops and civilians do not suffer.” On 18 July 2024, Ukraine sent a gift of 1,000 tons of its wheat flour to the Palestinian territories.

            abstains

            A more cowardly “no”. And Fuck Germany, Italy, and Japan in particular for “abstaining”. Just goes to show how not sorry they are for anything.
