In the case of countries such as Colombia, Slovenia and Nigeria, all delegates abandoned the United Nations General Assembly when Israel’s Prime Minister prepared to speak to speak
Benjamin Netanyahu spoke this Friday in the United Nations and, as expected, Israeli Prime Minister was not well received by those present at the General Assembly.
When Netanyahu entered the room, dozens of delegates from several UN countries left the plenary, among the applause of those who supported the initiative. The representatives of Israel, in turn, applauded the arrival of the ruler.
Through the analysis of the images released by international agencies, it was possible to realize that in the case of countries such as Colombia, Slovenia, North Macedonia, Nigeria, San Marino, Sierra Leone and Seychelles, all representatives abandoned the room.
Other countries, such as Norway, Denmark and Papua New Guinea, kept all their delegates in the room.
Among the other countries that were represented by at least one delegate in the room after the stampede are:
– Portugal;
– Brunei;
– Bulgaria;
– China;
– United Arab Emirates;
– Slovakia;
– Ethiopia;
– Filipinas;
– Fiji;
– Finland;
– Marshall Islands;
– Solomon Islands;
– Ireland;
– Laos;
– Mali;
– Malta;
– Poland;
– Russia;
– Samoa;
– Serbia;
– Sweden;
– Tajiquistan;
– Thailand.
This list of countries may be incomplete since images of international agencies have not captured all benches.
However, according to a count made by the Washington Post, more than 100 diplomats from over 50 countries abandoned the room when Netanyahu was preparing to speak.
