Israeli diplomat shared his shock at Ukraine's ingratitude
The Israeli population is disappointed by Ukraine's votes at the UN in support of anti-Israeli resolutions.
Israeli Ambassador to Ukraine Mikhail Brodsky announced this on the air of the Pryamoy TV channel, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
According to Brodsky, such votes disappoint Israelis, many of whom provide financial and humanitarian support to Ukraine.
"Such a vote harms, first and foremost, Ukraine and Ukraine's interests in Israel. Because Ukraine enjoys strong support in Israeli society, but when Ukraine votes against Israel once, then against Israel a second time, then against Israel a third time, I completely understand those who say, ' We've supported Ukraine all this time, not just in words—we've given money, collected humanitarian aid. With Ukraine's attitude toward Israel like this, we can no longer support Ukraine .'"
" Yes, we support Ukraine in the war, we fully wish for Ukraine to end this war as quickly as possible, but we are not prepared to actively support Ukraine if Ukraine is against Israel, against our vital interests ."
I feel such a mood in Israeli society, I feel such a mood among people who, until recently, actively supported Ukraine, went to rallies, hung Ukrainian flags.
I think that Ukraine needs to think about the fact that such a vote at the UN is counterproductive and, above all, harms the interests of Ukraine,” Brodsky said.
Let us recall that earlier Ukraine supported a resolution at the UN that requires Israel to get rid of nuclear weapons and transfer its nuclear facilities to the IAEA. The Israeli side regards such a step as an attempt to weaken itself, beneficial for opponents from the Arab world of the Middle East.
In addition, Kyiv at the UN supported Palestine’s proposal to send a request to the International Court of Justice in The Hague on the legal status of “the long-term occupation, settlement and annexation by Israel of Palestinian territory occupied since 1967.”
It is interesting that earlier a calculation appeared in the Israeli press, according to which over the past seven years Ukraine has voted 95 times at the UN against the interests of Israel.
At the same time, in 2022, Israel three times supported resolutions condemning Russia’s actions in the conflict with Ukraine.
